Actually, I've been running Verizon DSL for about a year. SuSE 7.3 installed
everything I needed to run it automatically. Although there are "features"
of VDSL that I dislike, particularly the lack of mail forwarding that screws
up all my replies unless I remember to switch my email address (must write a
script one of these days), and static IP would be nice, but otherwise the
line has been highly reliable, and downloading is consistently faster than
what they promise.
