[QUOTE="DammitJanet, post: 284449, member: 1514"] Last week we had the AT&T salesman tell notify us and tell us that finally DSL had come down our street. We were absolutely thrilled because out where we live we have only been able to get dial up service. Cable doesnt run out here. The only other possibility is a T1 Line or Satellite internet and I cannot in anyway afford those. We have always been in this black hole. Well..they swore that they now served us. We signed right up. Paid for the $50 deposit and the DSL modem right on the spot. Should have know it was too good to be true. Installer guy came out yesterday and went to run the DSL line and we are 500 feet too far away! There are 3 repeater somethings in either direction from the hubs! Unless they put in another repeater thingy...we are toast. Or another hub. Not likely. Like I said...I seem to be in some kind of black hole. Nobody wants to service my little area with anything.
