broadband recommendations, Arlington

[slandrum at cs.smith.edu (srl)]

My family recently bought a house in Arlington Heights. We've been
Mediaone customers for 3-4 years in Watertown but have noticed a
great degradation in quality of service since ATT acquired them.
We're debating whether to continue with ATT cablemodem service in
Arlington or to get DSL.

Thoughts? Anyone have suggestions on DSL providers? I'm looking for
a> uptime b> clueful customer support c> friendliness to running
small services from my machine d> fair pricing. I hear good things
about Speakeasy, but I've also heard that they've gotten worse as
they get larger.  I'd also like to get some idea of how long I can
expect to wait on a DSL or cable install.
