 ATT U-verse service, Lowell MI.

 Which is also why I'm paying Earthlink $8/month to keep my four email
addresses active -- I'm too invested in those addresses to look for a new
email service, but as AT&T doesn't offer old DSL/POTS in the area I
couldn't move my old Earthlink DSL (reseller from AT&T) -- and calling AT&T
to install a VOIP phone line, THEN having Earthlink resell the U-verse
Internet seemed obscene... Easier to just have AT&T do the direct service.
I did lose the Usenet (I was an old Earthlink client, so had been
grandfathered) access and had to pick up the lowest Giganews subscription,
and about three months ago, lost my 10MB (per address) web space. I
configured an RPi-3 and dynamic DNS to replace that.
