[ale] Naked DSL from Bellsouth?

[Nathan]

Just wanted to follow up on this.  Today marks day 7, one full week with 
atlantic nexus.  The install went very good and I've been checking the 
speed (via dsltestspeed.com) regularly to see how it measures up.  In 
short, I've been very pleased.  The only hiccup was that my IP changed 
sometime Saturday night which caused some issues Sunday afternoon.  I 
called their tech support, they answered, and had apparently not signed 
me up for a static.  They make the necessary change and now all seems to 
be good.
I am very happy with the product (dsl) and service (customer service).
