It's quite possible that one DSL provider will say "ok" when another says "no way." It depends on their requirements. Chances are that if ANY of them say "no" that you're far enough away that you won't get as much throughput from the one who says "ok". But, if the alternative is 56K...
You might consider Telocity. I have them now and think their service is teriffic. They are one of the few DSL providers who actually acknowledge the existance of something other than windoze and max. Also they ALWAYS give static IPs -- none of this PPPoE garbage that is a PITA to set up and adds overhead to the throughput.
In addition, Telocity has no setup charges and no minimum contract. Suffice it ti say that I am a satisfied user of Telocity.
If anyone DOES plan to call them, let me know... I think I can get a referal for a month or two free.
