Davis" <ckd () genome wi mit edu> To: dave () farber net Subject: Verizon and the Northpoint shutdown Well, Verizon may not be shutting down the Northpoint xDSL lines to their subscribers (my DSL router still gets sync) but that doesn't help if someone (possibly but not necessarily Verizon) cuts off the links between the DSLAMs and the rest of the world. The March 30 mail you sent to IP didn't stop my Northpoint line from going effectively dead at 6:40pm EST on March 29. This is sent from my work email, since my home net is still offline. As for "efficient migration paths", I'll believe it when my Covad replacement line is up and pinging--no sooner.
