Bob, Mine is going to be installed Wed. Another advantage, I like is, several computers can be networked together, all having the same access. This is good with more than one wanting access at the same time. ps Is yours through Bell South? Fred Pescitelli Phoenix Designs 1285 Turner Rd.

Mesick Sent: Wednesday, April 14, 1999 12:25 PM To: [log in to unmask] Subject: [TN] ADSL Technology In case anyone is interested, we are going on ADSL at home at the end of this month. I can't get it at work, have to be within 3 miles of central office. The cost, Intro hookup about $150 (Phone Co and ISP) Additional ISP charges (+10/mo) Loss of roaming access. Operates only from home modem. Need another account to access while traveling. Figure total charge about 1200/year more as I have to keep my old account for traveling. Advantages - (supposed) Always on line, Phone and Fax work concurrently Fast (supposedly up to 384K download speed) compared to dialup Doesn't slow down between 6 pm and 10 pm when everyones on line. Makes my impatient honey happy.
