Whoa, I'm surprised by this. Are we actually getting two bonded pairs?
The performance seems like one pair's worth to me. Though I was never
part of the line setup, so I don't know. If we're paying for two, I'm
down to set that up if it's not already.

Are these not just dry pairs that Sonic runs their own service over? I
think we can only call 611 and ask for support on the copper if we're
paying for a phone number, and the DSL service is just unbundled.
