Telcos suck (Score 1)

Got DSL through RBC, who is going through new edge and relay point. USWest(qwest), cannot offer me dsl, the reason being they do not have a DSLAM in the area. This other company however, got me hooked up in a little under a month, 768k. The only problem being that Qwest didnt check for bridge taps, and so I have 80ms pings to my gateway and only get about 60% of my bandwidth. It took some real moaning to get them in gear, but rbc is looking after me and trying to get it all corrected.. until then I still enjoy 64k a sec downloads.. and 80ms (to my gwy) pings, while not perfect, its better then a modem.. add onto that free installation and equipment.. ($500 value) and i really cant complain.. too much.. Check em out http://www.renpdx.com Read about all my problems ;) http://www.dunkan.net
