Is Verio really still around? I seriously suggest you move to a different
ISP. A number of years back, they bought the ISP I was using (just for
normal dial-up) and things immediately fell apart. They essentially became
unusable and made it clear that the only customers they were really
interested in were ones buying web hosting. Then canceling was whole new
problem. They initially ignored my request, charged my credit card, and lied
to the card company when I disputed the charge. When the credit card company
sided with me, they recharged my card without authorization. I've heard
nothing since that would make even consider doing business with them.

Like I said, a different ISP would be the best choice.
