I looked at Qwest for IDSL: the one-time fees and completely
incompatible hardware told me it was time for something else.
Basically, it looks like $250 for what I already had, plus whatever
cancellation fees that Onvoy will attempt to collect (have you met my
wife, the attorney?). That money would cover almost 5 months of cable.
Plus, you have to sign a fixed-term contract (1,3, or 5 years). Given
how bad Qwest was at IDSL the first time around, I'm not excited about
going back to them. Hey, at least RR picked up their phone when I
called and sounded like they knew what they were talking about (once
spent 3 hours on hold trying to talk to Onvoy).
