Speakeasy, Earthlink, and ALL the others lease the facilities from the local phone company. Why not use them? The benefit is called the SPOC. Single Point of Contact. Problem? One phone call.
Does anyone have current/recent experience with speakeasy DSL and /or voip? I am considering switchig from earthlink and speakwasy has been recommended for consideration.
