How to check area for High Speed Internet?

[mb]

I've got Verizon DSL without phone service. I've very pleased with it, I get better than advertised speeds.

I think I checked with almost every internet provider on the list of top ranked ISP's on dslreports.com and none of them offer service in my area except Charter Communications...

Is there any legal way for me to defend myself for paying money for a service they are not adequately providing?

Call your PSC.

Public Service Commission.

The problem is, they are providing adequate service to the terms you agreed upon. Home connections never have a latency SLA.

Uh... you need a phone line for DSL. But for Phone Service

NO line no connection You should probably work with a network engineer from Charter or something.

Did you atlesat call?

Yeah I thought you needed a phone line for DSL but on dslreports.com it said on ADSL for some services phone line not required...

I also tried with work with charter many times and this problem is reoccuring every month or so for the past few years... only reason I have not already switched is because as far as I know they are the only ones who can service my area without paying 75+ dollars just for internet.

I can not call just yet... still at work.

They are probably meaning you don't need phone service. They will need the line though.
