That's the biggest reason I'm with the ISP I am. They are local only, so if
you live in the Salt Lake area, let me know and I'll give you the name. I
find the local guys are much more reasonable as long as you aren't being a
jerk and messing things up for other customers. My ISP flat out told me I
could run 24/7 so long as I didn't cause problems for them. I even have a
static routable IP and permission to run server apps. I just make sure I
don't cause problems and everyone's happy. Check for local Wireless based
ISPs, I have found them to have the best speed/$ ratio without all the
hassles you get from Comcast and the like.
