As usual, I left out something:
I'm in Baltimore City.

Thanks to the replies so far on list and off.

hi,



I know there's been discussion in the past on "higher"

Internet speeds slightly beyond dialup- which I still

have.  So, I'm asking for an update.  I don't perceive

I really need beyond 750k-1 meg (I doubt anyone would

ever get the one meg) bits.



I was wondering what the consensus was on attempting to

get something like DSL  ( only dsl ) and using something

like "magicJack" for viop phone service ?  ( asking a magic question

3 times, cajoling, begging, threatening to disconnect etc... )



I know that for some time, the advertised price ( approx $19.95 )

for dsl is when you already have an analog line.  So the ~$19

is above the ~$25-$30 a person is paying for analog.  ( as Ver eye zone

obviously wants to keep a cudtomer in lock ).



So, is it possible to get JUST dsl? and if so, does you-know-who

block the service ports ( or other technical blocking )

for something like magicJack ?



thx,



W..........
