DirecTV has partnered with CenturyLink for DSL and phone service. Basically, you get a $5 credit on your DirecTV bill. I went to their office in the Rolling Acres Plaza to see how much they charge. It turned out to be $15 per month more than Comcast for internet alone after the first year. I've also heard that their internet speed is also slower than Comcast. If you bundle phone service it might save you money. For us, we use cell phone, DirecTV and Comcast internet. Not happy with Comcast customer service but it's working out for now.
