Residential T1 or T3??? Does it exist?

[dr. letum]

Hi,  Just wondering if such a thing exists.  If so, what kind of prices are we talking about here.  I am sooooo tired of verizon and want something better.  Is there an alternative other than cable to DSL?  Talk to me.....

They do exist, and they will cost you an arm and a leg (talking thousands per month)

Crap So does anyone wanna contribute to my "Get T1 for Letum" fund?  They really do have us by the balls don't they.  I knew it wasn't a vice that had grabbed a hold of me.

It all depends on where you are.  That includes price.

If you are looking for something in between, look at business class DSL.  You can find up to T1 speeds for under $200/month in some cases (using SDSL, which carries much farther then ADSL).  Real T1's cost a few hundered a month minimum, and up to a couple thousand.  T3's, those are around $4000 to $10000 a month here, depending and how fast you want it.

So, look at SDSL for business out there.  Tell them you are a home based business and you qualify.  That's the best you'll do for better bandwidth without sky high prices.
