Mine, was that I was too far out from the station so to speak and that there were too many people on the lines already, so i couldn't have DSL. Shelley L. Rhodes B.S.

When I put my phone number the website I get that I'm not eligible. When I talk to the service people they don't know why Ishouldn't be, and they put in accelerated requests. I did check Sprint and DSL EXtreme. At the latter, when I put in check eligibility, nothing happens. Sprint says I'm eligible, so I'll have my husband look at the site and pursue it further. I thought any DSL had to go through one's phone company's lines, butmaybe Sprint works differently. Also, I'm going to call the supervisor.
