A little mixing of terminology to obscure the real truth. Another complaint I have about excite@home is that they won't allow you to use it for telecommuting and I find that to be an accessibility issue especially for those who are persons with disabilities because we all pay for our own broadband service no matter what we use it for. But that's not an issue we need to discuss here. DSL providers don't care or seem to want to prevent you from using your broadband connection for accessing your employer's network. Amanda Lee
