That mostly goes with DSL in general. POTS doesn't have the bandwidth
to support reliable high speed connections over very much distance,
and DSL providers generally tend to use some nasty hacks to screw you
out of the service you're paying for, like PPPoE. Comcast sucks, but
it's better than Qwest.
