Trust me if Sprint didn't have a monopoly on the phone service in this area not only would my phone not be through them but the others would likely have DSL too. I would get it through them as soon as my contract is up in 11 months and 1 week, just so that I wasn't with Earthstink.. I love the DSL I have had it three weeks now. It has already saved me several hours of research time. As soon as it was available to me I got it. But at what cost? "I'm not talking the monthly bill either"

 

pop up blocker and AVG virus... then just a firmware firewall in my switch.
