broadband alternatives?

[Jeff Mings]

     Is anything practical available locally other than DSL or 
RoadRunner?  Obviously, modems are too slow and ISDN is too slow/too 
expensive.  An associate can't get DSL in his area, and RoadRunner's 
service agreement expressly forbids sharing an internet connection (such 
as with IP masquerading/NAT) unless you pay $10/per computer to share; I 
know that many of us do this anyway, but I read the fine print on a new 
RR agreement, and IP sharing would be a violation so they don't want to 
do it.  DirectPC would almost work, but they don't have a point of 
presence in the 808 area, and 400 Kbps still isn't quite as fast as one 
would like.  Do any of you know of alternatives for less than $100/month?


Thanks,

Jeff Mings
