I'm thinking of bailing on Atlanta Nexus.  I've rationalised since 2008 
that I was doing better than AT&T.  I can no longer do that.

1.  I'm surrounded by people getting faster speeds.  I see idiots 
getting 12+ down and higher.

2.  Internet goes down Friday and I call AN.  I get "AT&T says you are 
in an outage area and it will be up by 1pm on Saturday".

3.  No night or weekend support.

Other then the fact they do not block ports and are not afraid of Linux 
what does this almost $30 extra a month I pay getting me?
