I think Dallas gets the same choice I do here, either Telus (the telco) or Shaw 
(the cable company). There is a new upstart here that I need to look into more 
but haven't had time lately.

Dallas told me the problem is out at the pole, so I don't know why they can't 
get someone to climb the pole and fix their stuff.
