My experiences with AT&T residential have been nothing short of awful.

My experiences with AT&T business have been nothing short of awful.

My experiences with Comcast residential have been nothing short of
awful, with _one_ exception.

My experiences with Comcast business have been much better.  Hell, they
know what a routing table is.  The understand what an IP address is.
They know what traceroute is.  Hell, many of them even know what Linux
is.  Their installer techs use it on a netbook to validate the
installation of business class modems.

I'm not saying that Comcast business class is perfect.  If I ever find a
perfect business or a perfect technical support team, I've probably died
and gone off to IT heaven.  But it provides the second best tech support
that I've ever encountered from an ISP at less than dedicated line
level.
