I got the first DSL in france, a fucking VCR sized box that fried after a couple of months too... The deal wasn't the incredible 128Kb/s but that it was online all the time...

It quickly doubled up to .5Mb and then slowly up to 20Mb before I went with fiber some maybe 8-9 years ago. But I rarely felt hampered.
