Re: high speed internet carbondale

["Casey Boone" <ophidian_snake@hotmail.com>]

mediacom gives you a dhcp assigned sticky ip (it is more or less static, 
noone i know using mediacom has EVER had their ip change since they got it)

there is also shawneelink and a whole slew of other dsl providers.

i would lean mediacom simply for the fact their residential plan is 3mbit 
down and 256 up and noone matches that right now

i would avoid wireless providers and stick with landline though, most 
definately
