Good residential DSL providers?



For the Metro Boston (Arlington, Burlington, etc) area:

I've read some reviews on dslreports saying Speakeasy *appears* to be doing a
bad job as of late.   Again, these could be isolated events and they may be
doing an outstanding job.

Galaxy Internet Services in Newton also is a possible player, and dsl reports
claims better performance.

What recent experiences/reports do people have of these players, and any others?

I am looking to at least have a provider that permits servers, and likely
transfer my domain name from my present provider to the DSL player of choice,
with the provider hosting my mail.  I would then plan to use Thunderbird at
home and the provider's web GUI or ssh command shell for remote access.

I'm not looking for ultra high speed - 768/384 adsl works fine for me.

Thanks for any insight/feedback.

Scott
