I use Earthlink and haven't had any problems with them. I used to use Telocity which got bought out by Direct TV. When this happened Direct TV informed me that they could not give me service in my area. After some shopping around I hooked up with Earthlink.
After using Earthlink for a few months Direct TV started billing me again for service. They had decided to hook me up again without telling me and then billing me for service that I was not using. They did this to me several times. I ended up having to raise hell to get this fixed.
I've called Earthlink a couple of times for support and they're rock solid.
The only drawbacks are that you have to pay an extra $15 to have a static ip address on top of the $50 per month.
The only thing that sucks about the news concerning Direct TV is that people will be loosing their jobs and that's the last thing this crappy economy needs.
