	In my 3-4 months of having DSL, the only problems I've ever had
were because my ISP is trying to use Cisco equipment that doesn't work
the way Cisco says it's supposed to.  Specifically, their ATM router
doesn't quite handle the 1000's of PVCs required to do DSL for that many
customers.

	I've never had an outage because of the phone company.  If you
can find the right people to talk to there (which can be hard) they're
very helpful.  In fact, they upgraded me from 256 to 512 for free when I
told them that I had initially asked for 512.

Have fun (if at all possible),
