So, I’m serving this from my basement over my DSL link. As you know we were down over the weekend. This is because my modem died. I’m using a spare provided by my roommate. Unfortunately, my iniability to diagnose the problem lead to a truck roll
The bottom line is that when the tech looked at our line down to the CO, he saw lots of resistance on the line. This means that performance will never be what it could.
Damn these old phone lines!
So actually the truck roll was a good thing, I found out some essential things about my phone line - it’s old - and I got the news about the modem.
Anyone know whwere to go to get a good one? best bets on a good DSL modem?
Oh yeah, we’re capped at 192k…
Bummer…
