6/12    telocity sucks, i just got it hooked up, max is 400kB/s download
        \_ B as in Bytes or B as in bits. Bytes would be pretty good.
           \_ Either is hardly horrible for DSL...
        \_ Dude, I have IDSL from them, shut up.
        \_ I have a 1500/128k ADSL connection from Telocity (or should I say
           Direct TV DSL now?). Using the badnwidth tester at http://dslreports.com,
           I get about 1250down, 120Kbps up which I think is ok. May be the
           site on the other end is just too slow? -akopps
        \_ lucky you still signed up with telocity.  I had teloctiy, and after
           north point went down, they never switched me over to any last mile
           provider, just simply said they can't service my area anymore.  Funny
           thing is that they said a week later, they've partnered up with pac-
           bell, and there's a PB CO 3 Kilometer away from my place.  And they
           kept trying to sell me DirectTV's Satellite broadband.

11/1    I'm moving from a home in Fremont to another home within the same ZIP
        code in Fremont, and AT&T customer service says I cannot transfer my
        DSL service because DSL is not available at my new home.  Is that BS?
        Are they just trying to push me to subscribe to their more expensive
        U-verse service?  I'm not asking for any lightening-speed connection.

6/16    What the minimum you can get away with paying for cable modem,
        in the South Bay?  Slowest available speed should be ok.
        Everythings seems to go to +$40/mo after teaser rates end.
        I need something faster than 56k modem but nothing really fast.
        Wondering if possible to keep under $20, since I'm out of town
        maybe 25% of the time.

9/12    I need to receive a fax. I don't have a fax machine. What are
        some decent PC fax software for Windows? It's been too long since I
        used one. Thanks.
        \_ Doesn't efax still have a free service?

8/16    I have this extra ATT 2701HG-B AT&T dsl modem thing that I think
        has wireless.  Can I do something with it?  Flash it?  Install
        Linux on it?  Turn it into a laser?  help me out here.

8/8     Deal EE engineers. Can you please tell me if the following is
        possible? My condo offers HOA-paid basic DirecTV/Multiband
        (re-broadcasted into channel 2 all the way to 70) cable. It also
        offers TimeWarner broadband. There is only ONE cable going from
        the condo switch box into my unit, and I've been told that
        I can either get DirecTV/Multiband cable, or broadband cable, but

9/27    I'm currently using http://johncompanies.com and getting close to their
        40G/month bandwidth quota. I'm already paying $47/month for 5G disk
        storage and 40G/month bandwidth, and while the customer service
        has been superb, I'm a bit budget conscious and a bit reluctant to
        pay $80/month to johncompanies for the next level of service. I'm also
        a big socialist, and I support proletarian revolution. I've

8/2     So my deal with SBC is up in a few weeks and I'm thinking of
        switching over to Speakeasy DSL, as it costs the same as what I'm
        paying now, gives me twice the bandwidth, and has no landline
        (which I rarely use on SBC). Any previous experiences with
        Speakeasy to speak to their character? --michener
        \_ Speakeasy's great. I've had DSL with them for over 6 years

5/23    I have DSL through AT&T. The service was originally established
        through PacBell, transitioned to SBC, and now AT&T. I still have
        my original plan and never converted to a SBC Yahoo! (now AT&T
        Yahoo!) account. I noticed the price will be a lot cheaper if I
        do. Are there any drawbacks? I thought someone mentioned some
        negatives about the Yahoo! tie-in once upon a time.

2/18    My DSL modem's ip address is 192.168.0.1, my internal network
        behind my router is 10.0.0.x. Is there a way I can configure
        the router so I can access the DSL modem from my 10.0.0.x
        network directly without re-wiring? Static routes? I tried it
        but no much luck. I also tried changing my internal network to
        192.168.0.x, but still does not work. Thanks.
