Legacy DSL discontinuing service announcement, what are good bay area alternatives?

You should try pirateship to send back your DSL modem.
If you select USPS, they will pick it up from your mail box so no gas/time for you.

I agree that it is unlikely that sonic would reuse your modem directly but it's their rule which you agreed to when you subscribed.
Maybe it will get e-wasted or sent to a location where they are still on ADSL.

I remember a deaf person trying to argue they did not need the phone line nor ATA but were not allowed to return it early.

It's too late for that, I just remember the only option during cancelation was either print out or they mail you an UPS shipping label.
