Im sure you will. I had DSL with Bellsouth for a while. I was 18,000 ft from the C.O. and still did 1100 Kbit connection. constant downloads at 120 KByte/sec. Pretty good service. You will notice about a 2x increase if you are currently capped at 512Kb. Make sure to check to see if you qualify. Goto www.fastaccess.com. Put in your phone # and it will tell you if you can get it or not.
