Re: BellSouth (att?) with a clue in Raleigh, NC

      HI Chris,
If you are out of luck in getting DSL or Uverse.
I would suggest that you try your local Cable Service Provider.
If that does not work out either, I would suggest you take a look to see 
if you have A WISP (Fixed Wireless Service) service provider in the area.

(http://www.wipa.org/find-a-wisp  ..  Find a WISP link is under About 
WISPA menu).

Looks like no dice on uverse, says its not available. i thought uverse 
was fios though atleast that was my understanding. now im even more 
confused, how can att/bellsouth be the ILEC and have zero internet 
options at all but be offering pots? Only logical thing I can think of 
is distance from the CO making dsl a no-go but i cant get an actual 
qual to atleast confirm that :(
