I hear you dude!  I just added a second line and decided to make it DSL
and yesterday for hours and hours no email no surfing out!

Was very strange.  Must be something going on between Centralia and long
view.

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...
