Very happy with Verizon DSL here. Can't wait for FIOS though. :)

I've had nothing but great service with Verizon DSL at my place in Queens NYC. My girlfriend just switched over from Comcast in Pittsburgh to Verizon DSL. Sorry, but Comcast blows chunks. Wouldn't allow any aftermarket router to be used, shoddy service. I've been using Verizon for over 3 years now in Queens and have had to reset the modem maybe once a year. I just switched to the $15/month plan and the speed is quite acceptable. Only while downloading large files such as MS updates or large files do you notice it, but it seems the rest of the internet is slow enough that my connection is usually not the bottleneck. I'm currently using Optimum Online and its great except the $$$ so I'll be switching her also. You'll need to use their software to setup the modem and initialize your account, but afterwards, you don't need any extra software to access the internet.
