Subject: newbie needs ISP recommendations
Greetings all,

I'm new to PLUG but not new to *nix, having used various flavors for years at work and have
been running RH6.0 for over a year now at home.

I'm fed up with the continued incompentence of my current ISP - T1AMERICA - and am
seeking recommendations for a good ISP to sign up with. "Good" being defined as
- support 56k dial-up, good modem/user ratio
- have newsserver with plenty of newsgroups covered and fast feed
- very high reliability
- high degree of privacy
- solid support ( techies should know their business on THEIR end)
- prefer local dialup number(s)

Any suggestions? This list seems to be the best place to ask such a quesiton. Names/URLs
would be appreciated.

Thanks,

raftman

I would recommend my ISP, Fastq.com (http://www.fastq.com)
I think they are great!
I don't use them for dial-up, they are my ISP through a DSL.
Fastq allows me to run as many servers as I want, and even helped me to
register my own domain name to one of my static IPs.
They are very friendly and I have found the technicians very knowledgable.
Their phone number is (602) 553-8966.
Mark
