I don't know if this has anything to do with it, but it seems Verizon in this state is now selling their top package with the following now.
(up to 768 Kbps) is the fastest and only package they now offer, Maybe they have oversold their allocated amount and are now having issues?
We used to be able to get a 1.5Mb pack, not no more.

Verizon suck balls.
