I've been on Hot Spot Broadband for about 16 months now, which is a point to point wireless.

There have been a couple of glitches - and I have to confess that really crappy weather like we had a year ago January
can mess it up, but for the most part they have been quite responsive.

My download varies from 1.5 to 3.2 down and upload varies from around .7 to 1.2. The more I use a given connection the higher and more stable it stays, which I understand has something to do with the technology.

I have this at my office as well as at home and my business partners' homes. We've been fairly happy overall
but it ain't the cheapest solution.

Was looking at their service plans and noticed that they put a 20GB/mo cap on residential and 30GB/mo cap on business lines.
Unmetered 1Mbps is what.. about 300GB/mo.
Not sure I could stay under that limit... though I do appreciate not having to go through phone/cable company lines...

competitive market.

So what ISP do you go with?

I've had Charter cable, which was great for downloading, but crap for
uploading. I'm looking for a DSL service with at least 3.0 Mbps
download, and as much upload as possible. I'd also prefer not to have
a phone line be required (though this may not be possible for DSL
technology). Dynamic IP address is OK.

Any suggestions?

Has anyone had experience with the new AT&T (although it's probably
not much different from the SBC Yahoo! DSL).
