  • We know someone who works for our local AT&T company. He expected our area would be upgraded for DSL by the end of last year. Every week I check to see if DSL is available. Every week I wait while the page loads after I enter my address. Every week this message appears. Every. Week. Never again will I live somewhere I can’t use my cell phone and can’t get decent Internet. As much as I love where we live, it’s endlessly frustrating and expensive (satellite is expensive, and having to maintain a landline we don’t really want is expensive).
