It worked.

Not only does it work, but I am really surprised and impressed. It's
only been up and running for an hour or so, but it is amazingly fast for
DSL. I thought DSL was slower than cable, but it's not the case here.
This DSL is much faster than the Comcast cable we have in the house.

It could be that although the DSL is on a wireless router, I only have
one computer on it versus 2 or 3 on the wireless Comcast router in the
house. But the difference is very, very noticeable. Hope it stays this
way.

When you speed test the new DSL, what results in kbps do you get?

Try a couple of servers at http://www.speakeasy.net/speedtest/

at different times during the day at your house and office.

Typically, we get about 25,000 kbps down and 11,000 up. Sometimes
substantially faster down, sometimes a little bit slower down. That's
with the NY server. The DC server gives much faster results.

Best not to try this at high traffic hours...do it either very early in
the am or very late at night.
