I too use RawBandwidth, since October last year and have only good things to say about this ISP. RawBandwidth with it's DSL service is better than PacBell with T-1. PacBell doesn't provide the following services to full T-1 subscribers: time, news groups, router support, etc. so it's not hard to imagine how poor their DSL support is. I hope RawBandwidth stays in business in this hard time. ===
