Re: PSN dropped the ball.

I do wonder what kind of run around the local telcos give the ISP's. Obviously PSn was not high on the list! With pacbell, I had pacbell install the line first, no mention of DSL(2 days!) *then* I called to get DSL put on it. I wound up using Pacbell for my ISP anyways so it didn't matter.

since you are on the 'inside', do you think what I did would help other users who are waiting on the ISPtelco connection? You call the teclo directly, get the line, then call the isp with the line already ready to go. Kind of tricking the local telco...

It can be very frustrating to get some cooperation with the local telcos. Don't get me wrong, some do go very smoothly, but the ones that don't usually are botched really bad. For one customer, the 4th re-scheduled installation date was the charm after 3 no-shows. And get this, the latest in my area is that PacBell is out of DSLAM ports in some CO's and won't have additional equipment till at least a month from now (if that).

My general feeling is that the telco company will respond more adequately to requests if dealing directly with the individual. Such as in your case Jon.
