I saw something similar, I think AT&T is giving me a line to me which does not make me feel good about my future business with them.

I think AT&T is feeding me a line of BS and want to see how everyone else is doing. Our AT&T DSL service has been crap for over a week now. we pay for a 768/768 connection and I am getting less than 128k out of it. They telling me they are having trouble and have been having trouble since the 12th. They are not sure when they will have it fixed. They said it is a backbone problem and that lots of ISPs and lots of areas are affected and not just me. What sucks is that starting last week, I convinced my bosses here to do a test with VPN to connect our remote locations instead of the expensive frame relay. It worked great last week. This week it runs like crap because our internet connection is so poor. My ping averages were in the 90ms range last week and now they are in the 200ms area and half of them time out. IS anyone else having internet problems like this with AT&T or anyone else? For those of you on VPN, what do you do to work around things like this when they arise?
