I thought that the $19.95 was the seattle/portland "test market" for DSL
that isn't "always on". I called a week ago and was quoted $29.95 for 256k
bandwidth charges.

But, like Tony said, well, at least in the U-District, all of my friends
have seen >256k service from their lines.

If it IS done at the modem, yeah, lets find out how to tweak it ("I
overclocked my cisco"), but I find this unlikely since USWest will gladly
sell you an internal modem as well, and that would be harder to tweak on
the hardware side (or maybe simple jumpers).
