My DSL is $36 USD per month right now, with 3Mb/s down, 512kb/s up. That's an upgrade from basic, which is $26 for 1.5Mb/384kb. That's DSL with SBC. There service has been great, 'cept for their recent move to offshore tech support.
Time Warner Roadrunner is actually a slightly better deal, they are about the ssme price with 4Mb/s down, ??? up. Their service is quite good as well.

I find DPC to be terribly slow and I do have cable.

I could be wrong but my assumption is that their server is being beaten to death by that "update" button or just plain, heavy use passing around large picture files.

For the last week I have been experiencing the same thing. Slow page loading a slow picture loading. I have check my speed at dslreports and I running a excellent 2900+/364. And my milliseconds are averaging 12ms. Can't ask for any better than than. I have pinged dpc and the TTL falls from 250 which is good to 50 which would show a slow site access. The milliseconds have also risen from a average of 12 to an average of 38ms. Three times slower which would cause timeouts in the real world.
If I do a tracert in DS mode it appears that my weakest link is [ pop1-nyc-fe-2-1.gtdn.net [207.99.73.90]. There ms rating are twice as high as other route's beyond.
So it seems to me the way you are routed to dpchallenge.
