Hello Dave, I am using A T and T. I hear you about not wanting to be tied to a provider's software!! I will try not to use their software if I can avoid it! I have always heard "EarthLink " was a great ISP.However, I have all my communications stuff, cell phones, wife and mine, home phone , and computer with A T and T.
I do not like the monopoly they have set up, but what can I say!My only other choice is going Comcast Cable, and if I have problems, with A T and T, even after all these years, I might go that route.
Hopefully, I am nervous about this DSL thing for nothing! Thanks so much for the tips Dave!! I have learned a lot with the messages from all you kind folks, Thank you! With Best Regards, Alan Miami, Florida----- Original Message ----- From: "dave-d0619" <dave-d0619@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>

Who is your provider? I ask the question because it is not always necessary to install the ISP provider's software.For example, My ISP provider is Earthlink. I did not install their softwaretools, as I am already own and use software that is as good as, if not better than their protection software.Another reason why I personally would not use an ISP provider's software, isthat I do not want to be tied to them exclusively.
