GTE DSL: DSL... Digital SPEEDY Line!

Mon, 6 Aug 2001 18:05:04 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author dbirchall - I've been a rather happy user of DSL for nearly two years now. When I signed up, the situation here in Hawaii was such that DSL required me to pay two companies - GTE (the phone company) for the local-loop connection to their central office, and a...

GTE DSL: Good product, bad customer service

Tue, 19 Jun 2001 04:23:05 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author sandrock001 - I ordered my DSL service December last year and they finally made it work just last month. However, they've started billing me two months ago. And up to now they haven't fixed my billing issues in spite of several calls. The biggest headache with this...

GTE DSL: Now called Verizon DSL, good but only after trying installation

Fri, 15 Jun 2001 18:20:19 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author kairyl - I originally got our DSL service installed in our apartment in Dallas, TX. I chose the self-installation. I just plugged in the DSL modem to the phone jack, ethernet cable to my computer, and that was it!

Luckily my PC was already setup to...

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author JadeDrgne - I first got DSL 2 years ago...When GTE still was heading it here in my area. Since that time though I LONG for GTE back.

Let me tell you what happened.

GTE DSL: DSL rules!

Thu, 15 Feb 2001 19:18:32 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author therebel - The DSL internet access is really cool. If you have games like Starcraft, Broodwar, Triple Play 2000, and many, many more games over the internet DSL is the name you need to know to get high speed internet access for a low monthly fee. And you don't...

GTE DSL: GTE DSL Internet Connection

Thu, 15 Feb 2001 15:56:42 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author stephanie4 - I am currently using the DSL line through GTE. Overall, I like the DSL connection more than using a modem to connect to the Internet. My GTE DSL connection has only been unavailable twice in the 7 months I have been using it, and when it was down it...

GTE DSL: What's everyone else smokin'? GTE ROCKS!

Mon, 8 Jan 2001 22:20:11 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author quokin - No, GTE didn't pay me to say that. But from the results I've been getting with their DSL service, I have to disagree with what some other Epinions members have been saying about it. GTE has now joined with Verizon wireless. Don't bother surfing to the...

GTE DSL: OH my, DSL, OH NO GTE DSL

Sun, 24 Dec 2000 01:51:03 GMT

rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author James_X - The SPEED, oh the speed. The speed at which one could download songs was amazing. Once I got DSL finally, life changed, no more waiting 20 minutes to download a song, and no more getting disconnected from my favorite online games either. Ya ya ya, BUT...

GTE DSL: Dsl is not for everyone.

Mon, 11 Dec 2000 02:56:01 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author moze - I thought I would pass along of some information about my dsl experience. First the cost of a one year contract was $32.50 per month with a year contract and with free installation. At the time I was disappointed with the speed I was getting from dial...

GTE DSL: No more guilt!

Sat, 9 Dec 2000 15:55:05 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author Sylvesterkat - I decided to finally get DSL from Verizon (GTE) after seeing all their recent advertising. They were offering free 'installation' (I'm assuming they mean at their end since I did it at my end myself), free dsl modem and an all inclusive price of $39.95 a...

GTE DSL: Great service at an OK price

Wed, 6 Dec 2000 06:23:59 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author TrevorH - I have had DSL service from GTE Internet, now Verizon Online, for a full year now. The installation went well. The installer was on time, courteous, and took less than 45 minutes to complete the install. Since I already had a network interface card...

GTE DSL: Verizon, Formerly GTE, Brings DSL to Consumers But With Some Hassle

Mon, 27 Nov 2000 22:15:15 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author Collectonian - I'm online 80+ hours a week. 56K just doesn't cut it, especially if you are a web developer and an MP3/movie junkie like me (over 600 and counting). When I moved into my current home, I had already decided that I was getting high speed access, my only...

GTE DSL: The speed of DSL

Fri, 6 Oct 2000 14:20:09 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author marklafferty - I had been deciding on getting DSL for a year or so before I actually made the call to GTE to have it installed. I could not justify having it before because of the price was a little too high for me. The price was reduced to 39.95 a month including...

GTE DSL: Excellent service

Sun, 17 Sep 2000 12:22:58 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author David_Cornwell - I live in Fort Wayne, IN. I have nothing but praise for Verizon/GTE DSL. My connection products arrived before the due date. Everything was as advertised. I'm using GTE for my ISP also, so the two blended together well. Phone support was great and helped...

GTE DSL: Great, When It Works

Thu, 24 Aug 2000 03:18:52 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author vollmann - I've had GTE DSL for about a month now and my experiences have been mostly positive with a few negatives. I had decided to make the changeover to DSL from my regular dialup after having had great service with GTE for over three years. I almost never had...

GTE DSL: sad to say...

Tue, 22 Aug 2000 00:39:26 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author CtrlZ - Well I work for an ISP out of Dallas which my GTE DSL runs through. I have the 768/128 service, and man when there's nobody on downloading music or movies you can move around quickly. For some reason when I'm on and just browsing site to site, it seems...

GTE DSL: What You See Is NOT What You Get.

Tue, 8 Aug 2000 14:48:54 GMT

rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author coldsteel7 - Two months ago, I got rid of AOL. It was time to move on to something better. I was tired of getting bumped off-line in the middle of writing an Epinion! I checked the website "2wire.com" and found that GTE was offering DSL service in my...

Sat, 5 Aug 2000 16:29:32 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author Benw66 - I love my DSL it is the best thing i have ever bought. Having the internet run all the time at break neck speed is great. GTE however has very poor customer service. GTE had advertised their DSL and it was a new service however when we called they...

GTE DSL: Piece of Cake

Sat, 29 Jul 2000 19:09:58 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author michaelw - Everything in life should be this easy.

Allow me to go back in time a bit. Around September of 1999 a friend decided to upgrade to DSL. Even though he stayed with his same ISP he (and the ISP) had to deal with GTE to do the connection, get...

GTE DSL: DSL is amazing

Thu, 27 Jul 2000 21:52:01 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author dkgamez - I've now been on DSL for about 2 months and from the first moment all 3 LED lights lit up on the DSL modem I was hooked. The switch from 56k to 768k was amazing. Being able to download mp3s in mere minutes instead of the usual 20 min wait was...

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author iger - ...if you have read the others. My experience in Lexington, KY has largely been the same as everyone else. Ok, well maybe you should read this review anyway. What else do you have to do?

I initially wanted a cable modem hook up, but then...

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author rsmiller - While I do not have GTE Internetworking as my ISP (I have an account on a local ISP, where the owner answers the phone whenever I have problems), I use GTE's DSL equipment to connect to my ISP. I responded to the free modem and install promo some time...

GTE DSL: No more napping during downloads....

Sun, 2 Jul 2000 21:50:49 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author hopelynn - As a long-time subscriber to AOL, I have endured the endless wait for pages to download, the frustrating WAOL error messages that kick you offline, and the depressingly frequent times I am unable to even access the internet, due to some "technical...

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author nwinston - ~=~ Update 11/11/01 ~=~

I've had GTE, now Verizon, DSL service for many moons now. I love having DSL. When I travel and have to dial up, I realize how addicted I am to my "always-on" home connection. My service hasn't been down for...
