Yes - I have SWB DSL (Premium service so I get a static IP address
so I can run my web site from home).

Aside from the bad modem they gave me on day one, I can honestly say
that I havn't had a single outage or problem of any kind in the two years
I've been using the service.

They had no problem with me using it with Linux - although they don't
*support* Linux, so I had to install it myself (which was VERY simple
BTW).
