BS may own the last mile, but they are required to provide access to
competitors like Covad. Covad did the installation for the OneLink DSL
from Speakeasy.

I am close to the switch so I get great speed (6M down, 768k up on both
lines)(yes, I have dual DSL lines :}

Upside:	Don't have to use BS directly for anything. Can use VOIP/cell
phone for what I want. Great service from Speakeasy.

Downside: BS _still_ has access to the DSLAM and screws things up. A
client lost connectivity due to a BS field tech disconnecting his DSL
line because a) it wasn't marked as 'in use' in any notes (printed,
on-line or even wire tags) b) the tech was looking for unused lines to
install service elsewhere so just started disconnecting things.
