DSL? Gas? Electric? Water? (Lexington, Louisville: to buy, landlord, utilities)

[jillagig]

I've looked on a couple of other threads but can't quite find a good DSL provider here in Lexington. I just moved and my landlord recommended Insight but their $40/month fee seems steep especially if they want to charge me $50 to buy their modem, $30 to setup and $15 to add new service. Anyone know of any DSL companies? What about the rest of the utilities?

Insight provides Cable Internet...not DSL.

If you want DSL, try AT&T. Im pretty sure you can get AT&T in Lex. Thats what I use at my office in downtown Louisville. Its not quite as fast as Cable, but it does the trick.

hmm. In Louisville Insight offers free set up and installation. You can usually find a modem on criagslist if Insight wont give you one. Insight offers cable high speed internet for 30/month. and for 90/month you can get cable, internet, and phone together.

Go with the Insight Cable modem. Much faster than DSL and you can get a package with cable tv and phone.

You can get DSL pretty cheap from Windstream.

Windstream is really good. That's what I use for DSL.

We have Windstream broadband. We like it.
