For the 384-1.5/128-384 your speeds look very good. Maybe could do a little better on your download, but overall, be happy, those speeds are close to the cap Laughing

Oh and Welcome to the Forum.  Smile

My question is: Is this a decent speed for having the slower (low priced) of their two DSL offerings Question
Yup looking good !  Very Happy You'll get spoiled quick and decide that extra $10 for Pro is a pretty good Deal.  ;)
It's only a matter of time.  :haha:

Yep, I was so thrilled to get DirecWay... then adelphia came to town Smile. Anyway, once you start browsing forums like this and see VanBuren posting his download and upload speeds you will want more... I know I already do cry

Does anyone know what prices I might expect if I want to continue receiving SBC Yahoo DSL Express service after my 1-year $14.95/month contract expires?

Historically SBC stays ~$5 under Verizon. So I would "GUESS" ~ $24.95 a month. Besides the whole home BB game is always evolving. Maybe $9.95 a month !  :haha:

^ In all seriousness, I would not be surprised to see $9.95 a month for BB in 2-3 years maybe.  :headbang:
