I've had some unusual outages lately. The other night was around 11:30,
phone and tv went out. I called them up, and they said it'd be back
online in about 90 minutes. 90 minutes later, it was still down, I
called back, and the woman acted like she had no idea what I was talking
about.

Doh! That's just wrong.

BTW, I switched to Earthlink when they jacked rates a few months ago. I
pay
like $24.95/month but the same router, network and everything else.
Wonders
of modern business. Now if I can just replace my DirecTV with Internet
TV
then I can save some real money.
