What you mean with all those untold millions you have you can't even go
out and by a SunSet xDSL tester? They come in handy you know!

Good idea, except that I have no way to read those.
Verizon forces me to use a Fujitsu SpeedPort modem and there's no
management or monitoring from the Cat5 side of the device as far as I've
been able to determine..

Jim, 

 

How about posting your DSL stats, I would love to see what kind of line
stats your modem is getting from Verizon. I wonder if maybe it's a line
or distance problem but no one here will know until we see your modems
line stats. 

 

Regards,

Andrew

If you had tried to either send me mail or get something from
ISATools.org, you may have noticed some rather irritating non-responses
today.

This is because my DSL line is acting up (consumer-grade service;
waddaya expect?).

 

I've logged literally hours of downtime today and when I tried to get
some help from Verizon, all I got was either "we're closed for the
holidays" or "you're not using Verizon for your ISP, so we can't help
you".  This is customer service?!?

If only it were as easy as the Qwest commercials made it sound, I'd
shift telco carriers in a New York micro-second.

 

My ISP (ZipCon, if you're in the Seattle area) put in some serious
overtime for me today, but all to no avail.  Needless to say, we're both
PO'd in the extreme.

If this is what deregulation gets us, it sucks big time.

I'm almost considering moving to Business Cable (T-1 costs ~$800/mo
between ISP and telco fees)...

 

<GRRRR>

 

..at least I got the cables and adapters I needed to get some basic
sound paths built for my studio...

 

Alcohol; mass quantities of alcohol...

That's what's needed, here...
