[ale] Speedfactory Problems ... again

Speakeasy does not support ADSL to my address.  They will support IDSL at
miserable bandwidth rates, or be happy to sell me a full T1 for $350 a
month.  Never heard of Atlantic Nexus.  I'll check them out.

My concern is that anybody who sells ADSL or other services over AT&T
copper will run over AT&T facilities, which I believe is where the problem
is.  So anybody selling the service will probably have the same issues.

Kinda like - doesn't matter who your natural gas supplier is, all the gas
goes through Atlanta GasLight lines, and when one of their lines springs a
leak, does not matter who sold you the gas....

Thanks for the head-up on Atlantic Nexus though.
