Dear CenturyLink…
I would like to take the time to thank you for taking over providing DSL service from Embarq, and the upgrading the speed of the connection for my small town. Next time, though, it would be nice if you would consider upgrading your equipment to handle the extra load. As a network administrator, if I were to do something like that I would be fired, especially if I let it drag on for a few years with no hope in sight. But my town is not unique, is it? You seem far more concerned with increasing the bandwidth to 1 Gig in Vegas, rather than worry about the small areas and the 3ish Meg connections.
Are there any reliable Internet provides that would like some new customers? If it’s reliable I’m all yours.
