We're getting $26 / month DSL in a rural area; are we being ripped off?

221 kbps is still broadband and for $26 that isn't bad considered years ago it was that price for unlimited dail-up with the maximum connection rate of 53.3 kbps and a data transfer rate of about half that
check with mobile broadband companies like AT&T or Sprint you may be able to get a trial period or something. ISDN would not be much better in speed but much higher in price

Does it actually download at 221 kb/s when you are downloading something. Cause that would be good for ur internet type and price (cheap).
If not there are better speeds available out there .......just has to cost u more than $26
