First)
 the service is correctly termed xDSL when speaking of all types,
    ADSL only when the transmit and receive rates are Asymetrical
    SDSL when both rates are Symetrical (the type of service I have with
GTE)

there are other acronyms such as HDSL, IDSL, etc....but you know how phone
companies like abreviations :-)


Second)
the service is great but expect NO help from GTE unless you have a win95/8
box toplub in for there test.

Good Luck
