Nope. No Charter cable around here. Does someone else do it?
I'm not sure who Earthlink uses locally, but they always say its a Verizon problem.
Speakeasy uses Covad. Perhaps I should switch?
Everyone uses Verizon wires since they own the infrastructure throughout New England. If you get DSL from Verizon at least there will not be anyone else to point the finger at. Since Covad is about to go bankrupt I wouldn't recommend them. Have you looked into cable modem service in your area?
From what I've read, Covad, after paying their bond holders, will have 225 million to run the business. & they lose 175 million a quarter... So thats another 3-4 months running.
I'm starting a little net company thing (good timing!) & need a really fast, solid connection -- for surfing. Thank you- Matt _______________________________________________ Wlug mailing list Wlug@mail.wlug.org http://mail.wlug.org/mailman/listinfo/wlug
