yes i have looked at Naked DSL, but AT&T wants to charge 25 dollars for the basic DSL(slowest speed) if you have a landline. However, it is 35 dollars for the slowest speed for naked DSL. So the difference is 10 dollars more for internet if you don’t have landline.

@Mike – It varies depending on if I’ve haggled it down for that 6 months, and is combined with cable tv (gasp! yes I pay for ESPN…) I do know what you mean when you say DSL is often cheaper. $30 to $50

However, have you looked into naked DSL? AT&T seems to offer it, even if they don’t promote it. Also, consider downgrading to the leanest phone service and see if that makes things even cheaper. Good luck!

Jon, if you don’t mind me asking, how much do you pay for your internet?

If you have dsl, you probably have phone landline and you also pay for DSL service.

So far, i couldn’t find a cable provider that is cheaper than dsl + phone landline.

In my place, there is only At&t and Time Warner. That it.

Now that google voice is open to the masses you shouldn’t have to spend more than $50 for a voip box and then set it up with a free in-bound voip company, then you can get all your calls for free, if you don’t mind getting on your itouch or computer to make those calls. Check out lifehacker.com for voip company suggestions. I’ve been doing it for over a year now and have been very pleased.
