Since I moved one building over in my condo complex two years ago, I lost my (now called) ATT DSL. (I still don't understand this!) Earthlink has been the only game in town for my location, but I hate it and it's 2.5x as expensive as ATT. Every time I have a major meltdown with Earthlink, I see if another company is available for my address.

Anyway, today I discovered that Covad now sells for my address at the same price as Earthlink. I've checked reviews online, but most of them are old. As with any company, they are mixed. I also discovered that, at least at one point, Earthlink is a reseller of Covad. If that is currently true, I'm guessing service won't get any better with them.

Does anyone know if Earthlink is really Covad? If it isn't, has anyone had any experience with Covad, especially in the Chicago area?

I've thought about buying a broadband card from Sprint or ATT and dumping DSL, but I need to be able to use the print server on my router to print wirelessly from the laptop. Is there a way to do so with a broadband card?
