The 44.95 package is a special business package, that everyone under 5k feet loop length and on a CO that has enough capacity to handle it.  Its a package to compare (sort of, though not well) to the 44.95 FIOS package.  You'll have to call billing and request the upgrade.

my friend in tampa bay area got free upgrade to 6mbit/768kbit (or maybe it was 5mbit but same upload speed) verizon dsl. he used to be 3/768 package. he is still paying 29.99 per month for dsl.

3.0 is fast enough i think

I just had a price change on Verizon DSL
for a very long time I have been paying over $39.00
each month. then a flyer came to my home saying
I could get DSL for $14.95 month.. I called & ask why
I was paying so much more for my DSL. Their answer
was that I could change to the $14.95 cost if I wanted to.
 I ask what would be the change in my speed, they said
none. So I said ok. then after checking with contacts was
told my speed would drop. so I called them back & after
a lot of talk found out I have had the lowest speed all
along. They said my location can not get to higher speed
because I am to far from the main office.
  My download speed is under 700 kb  upload speed is only 86 kb
  all I can say is I'm a little faster than dial up

I like my connection, i just would like verizon to upgrade us soon.
Lastest test seems fine:

::::::::::.. Download Stats ..::::::::::
Connection is:: 2821 Kbps about 2.8 Mbps (tested with 2992 kB)
Download Speed is:: 344 kB/s
Tested From:: http://testmy.net (server2)
Test Time:: Sun Jan 22 2006 05:09:22 GMT-0500 (Eastern Standard Time)
Bottom Line:: 50X faster than 56K 1MB download in 2.98 sec

Though i can only get 2.8Mbps when im on firefox but not on Internet Explorer.
Cmon verizon get with it like Bellsouth.

Why are people complaining about the 3Mbps plan? I am only on the 768/128 Kbps plan....I wish I could have what you have

Well guys i just moved out of verizon area and gave up my DSL connection. Maybe someday ill return when they decide to upgrade DSL customers or if im back in the area. I did like the connection.
