Hello!
I live in a typical NYC apartment where the power costs (including
fuel gas for cooking) are bundled into the rent so they never tell me
the rates.


That's a great arrangement - what are the broadband options like - how much
can you get up/down?

Hello!
Typically 1.5M one way and 768K the other. AT&T keeps mucking up the
figures so I can't get a straight answer out of them.

I ended up sticking with AT&T (Who was my dialup service provider)
when those clowns at Verizon couldn't give me a straight answer at
all. This is before FIOS of course......

My one problem is that technically it's a consumer grade connection as
opposed to a business one so I can't do very much with it. I did at
one point investigate the AT&T business offerings but I never got an
accurate response from that office.

And even though I have TWCNY for cable TV, they've stopped offering me
their version of broadband access for some reason.....
