Did you see where Excite@home is in bad financial shape and expected to run out of cash within months. RoyYep. And Verizon, the ILEC, doesn't seem to understand the concept of needing a subnet -- their xDSL is host-only (I have stories about that).
FWIW: You can get a DSL provisioned through Verizon DSLAMs via many different ISPs (they vary per LATA). Many of them (cough) offer business-class services (subnets, VPN/IPSEC). Chain goes like this: (In most states, example given in VZ and SBC area) ILEC (Verizon/SBC) sells physical copper lines to DILEC (VADI/ADI) who provides "Layer 2" service to ILEC's ISP (Verizon Online DSL) Many other ISPs. Legally (again, in most states), DLEC arm of ILEC is not allowed to provide layer 3 service, and is obligated to sell the service to all ISPs including ILEC-affiliated ISP on equal terms. -- Alex Pilosov | http://www.acedsl.com/home.html CTO - Acecape, Inc. | AceDSL:The best ADSL in the world 325 W 38 St. Suite 1005 | (Stealth Marketing Works! :) New York, NY 10018 |
