There is a guarantee for you being able to connect to it though.

I just do not want smoke blown at me. They have added more bandwidth true, but apparently not enough. I have been getting "The document contains no data" or "Operation timed out" errors. If I could even get a 5K connection would be nice, but there is none to be had. Have tried from 8 different broadband connections, different ISP's, all the same. I guess my only point is stop tossing around about people to quit bitching, just because you got access, and other paying customers didn't. Oh, and when contacted RH, the answer is to "keep trying". -- Eric Burke <eburke@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>
