out for them that they had whole sections of network down in SD. ("oh, is
that a problem?")
As for attacks, I get probed by @home 5 times a day trying see if I am
running a news server. NM the fact that I send mail to abuse constantly with
IPs of machines that are probing me.
("We can't do anything about that...")

And, since I run services like ssh, I'm told I need to upgrade to @work,
since no consumer
would ever use a service like that, so I MUST be running a business off my
cable connection.

Good luck!

Unless the network is lying to me again, Jim Logan said:

Anyone have a phone number for someone with a clue at @Home?

Getting tired of their level 2 support telling me my packet loss is 
because
I'm pointing to the wrong nameserver....  Ugh...

I can't even get that far.  I call them to report attacks coming
from their network and get forwarded to voicemail hell... I finally
get to the point of leaving a message and I never get a callback.
