I did the same thing here in provo. Researched and found nothing. Then a magic work wisped through the air. Speakeasy. They offered everything I need. I run commercial sites from my server so I needed an ISP that gave me Static IP's (8) and the ability to do anything I want. I get 1.5 down 785 up for about $80 a month. They also let you legally share your connection with your neighbors and they can help you pay the bill. SO I only pay about $40 a month.
