I go to the University of Nebraska and I see they carry ASDL through the local phone company - probably get a $5 discount or something.

Any way if you could take a second and check out there link below and give me your opinons on if it would be better to go with the the first or the second plan (there are three avail: access, access+, access+5) and which tier? I just want a fast connection (more download than upload) and I'll be using my 4-port router/switch. They also list that they use/sell the Cisco 677/678 modem. Is this decent or what would you suggest as being the best? Keep in mind I don't know their prices yet, I will have to check on that.

I really appreciate your advice and help.

By the way - is Time Warner part of AOL or is AOL taking over Time Warner's broadband/internet network?
