thinking of switching my mom from ATT DSL because their d/s speed in her area is quite poor. Though Sonic advertises 'up to 20mbps' I understand that is a function of distance to 'Serving Office'. She's in 94303 (Palo Alto), 13,546 feet away per sonic.net and that seems rather far (saw posts estimating 1-8mbps for 10k feet)
- what downstream speeds can she expect (range)?
- would she be able to use her AT&T dsl modem/wifi router (it's an ADSL2+ Linksys) or would she need to use a sonic.net-provided unit?
Thank you,
