I just signed up for telocity, or something like that. 
I found it on dslreports.com. 
It supports linux (which I can do myself), 1.5M/128k ADSL, no contract
required, and just $25 to send the modem to you, and you ship it back 
when you cancel service. Static IP also. Sweet for $50. 
I noticed a lot of DSL companies support Linux these days. 
I only found one I liked. It was nice the sales person knew what Linux was.
When Pacbell called, I couldn't get Linux support and a static
ip address, I decided not to use them. 

The only type of DSl I could get before wasn't much better
than the ricochet modem, and it was expensive, so I never bothered.
I never had the option of cable modems.
