ADSL Promotions?

I’m moving into a new place and am thinking about getting ADSL hooked up. I know there are a few internet providers like seednet, hinet, and chunghwa telecom. Can someone please tell me what the difference is between these companies? It seems to me that they all do the exact same thing with the exact same lines. Do they run special promotions, and more importantly, are there any occurring right now? Sorry to be so ignorant, but this will be the first time I have ever had to pay for internet service, so I’m clueless! Thanks.

The physical link is the same as Chunghwa Telecom has a monopoly on the actual ADSL circuit currently. Once it gets to the ISP though, the quality of service, especially to foreign sites can vary a lot, as each ISP contracts for international links separately. The pricing for the ADSL circuit will be the same no matter who you choose. The ISP charge will vary a lot. You will want to avoid the cheapest ISPs as your performance will likely suffer. The one advantage you’ll have with Hinet is that both the ADSL and ISP bill will be together.
