Hi Don, Hmmm, uh, well, actually 640 Kbps is *not* the upper limit with QWest DSL. If it is for your telephone number, that just means that's what your telephone line qualifies to receive. BTW, for another DSL solution with static IP and no restrictions on servers, contact Amerion at 602-263-7466 or http://www.amerion.com.
