DSL Providors

Hi all,

Forget DSL!!! Forget it!!  If you want DSL you better be prepared to
get the business kind because if you get ADSL they will force you into
getting that damned SSG Dashboard crap that can not be accessed in
Lynx w3 or anything but MSIE.  This is their web interface to their
routers.  When you *can* access it with Gates' garbage, they have
decided to write the whole damned thing in Java script.  It takes me
twenty to thirty minutes to reset my DSL when they time it out, which
they do every week or so.  Why does it take that long?  I have to
reboot into Windows.  Then, I have to access the Dashboard.  Then, I
have to find the stupid links to the edit boxes which are not labeled
correctly so that the MSAA works properly.  Then, I have to keep
turning MSAA mode on and off and going through all kinds of
machanations to get the damned thing reset.  Plus, that's not counting
the eleven outages I've had since July 18th!

Not only that, Frontier treats me like a child.  They call their
routers modems, like I'm a five year old kid that can't call going to
the bathroom anything but going weewee.  They think it is always *my*
fault when something goes wrong, it *must* be my fault, I'm the
customer, and the customer is always wrong, doncha know!!  

Those telephone companies, at least Frontier Communications doesn't
know its ass from a hole in the ground.  They can't run their service
correctly, they don't know what's wrong with their equipment when
something breaks, and the whole thing is a SNAFU (situation Normal All
Fucked Up).  Excuse me, I'm sorry folks, I do not usually become so
vulgar, but I am disgusted with DSL, Frontier and the whole
technology.  I'm going to cable on Thursday, and I'm very, very glad
of it.  If you think that DSL can work in Linux, you need to pay for
the expensive kind, cuz the residential ADSL is for the birds!!!
