I've gone between Cable and DSL at least 6 times in my lifetime. Once
I got married and moved into this house I got cable and vonage as the
phone service. Well comcast kept going out and least 5 times a day...

Have you looked at MagicJack? Very cheap and while the quality is definitely
not as good as a normal landline, it's pretty decent. I was considering going
