I've had a dial-up ISP account with Mindspring for 2 years now and been very happy with their availability and support. We have DSL from USWorst because that's all that was available before the Mindspring / Earthlink merger. Just some back of the napkin notes from using the USWorst DSL with USWorst ISP and it seems that somewhere things are over subscribed so the pipes to the net are full. Has anyone made the jump from USWorst to Mindspring / Earthlink? Do I keep the DSL service with USWorst and just move the ISP connection to Earthlink or do I get it all from Earthlink? thanks chuckc tclug-list at mn-linux.org wrote: > I have a couple of friends down there that get chater service. One of them was part of the beta setup. At that time he was getting 25K (And his intranet dhcp server was being relayed over charter hehehehehe, anways), but now they both are getting about 60K.
