At work I have us on XO.com and have had for many years with very few problems. I think it's gone down only twice in years and only for a brief period. But they're not the cheapest. Go to dslreports.com and check the reviews of providers in your area (use the "find" link on the home page). Speakeasy.net is often rated the highest for reliability but it's a bit more expensive than others. Meaning you still might pay $50/month but for slower speeds (384K vs. 1.5G). But what good is 1.5G if you can't connect half the time?
