F*ck Sbc Dsl

Ok, so I finally ordered dsl about a month ago and have really been looking forward to being able to actually use the internet (with dialup i pretty much only checked my mail while at home). So, finally they activate my service yesterday. I was psyched. So Ihooked everything up and went online to start seeing how much better it was. well, fucking guess what...

I AM USING MY DIALUP CONNECTION AGAIN BECAUSE SBC DSL FUCKING BLOWS BIG DICK.

my maximum transfer rate was around 1kBs. Plus, anytime someone picked up the phone, or the phone rang the damn thing disconnected!!!! (and yes, i do have filters on all the phones). This thing fucking blows.

ok, well. It is working beautifully now. I guess I just had to wait a few days. They should really tell you that before you install it.
