Re: Line Monitoring SignUps for Embarq members

that's confusing. why would I check the dynamic box if my ip is static?

I went back and checked it but that does not make sense to me.

Basically you're entering your ip address at the time and checking dynamic to let the system know that it is infact dynamic so that when you login next time it can check and see if you IP has changed.

If your IP is static then there shouldn't be a reason to need to check the dynamic ip box.

Zep, that I don't know but I do know that works. Sorry. Maybe someone else does and will be able to explain.

Thanks, Silentwolf. I see you type faster than me.

I see you're up and running now. It will take a while before your graph starts to populate.

Monitor setup.

Can you also re-send me an invite to share my test history? I got the automated system invite and mis-clicked. I meant to click accept buy accidentally clicked on decline. (That's what I get for working on the computer late at night without my glasses on!)

Shame on you, davoice.

I just tried to send you an invite and I can't. I'm going to have to do some checking as to why not. When I find out why, I'll let you know. Sorry.

Yes I got "spammed" with a whole slew of invites. No biggie. But FYI... when "System" sends the invites you get 1 invite and 1 IM *per* test you have ever run. That can add up to a whole lot of invites quickly.

PS... In case you didn't notice, I've been here longer than you. So no, I haven't changed my email address or forgot to verify.

Sorry about all the spam. It wasn't intentional. I didn't know they were going thru or being held. So I kept trying to get an invite sent to you. I've not had this problem with anyone else.

Yes, I know you've been here longer than me. I was thinking that maybe you had changed your email and somehow your acct wasn't verified and that was the reason I couldn't send you an invite.

Glad to see you joined the Group. I promise no more spam from me.

My connections has been running pretty stable, my upload is being capped at 260k for some reason embarq still can't figure out, but other than that I'm happy with it. I want to thank the Mods/Admins for setting up such a nice feature.

Re: Line Monitoring SignUps for Embarq members

This is a thread for asking for an invite to the line monitoring group not for griping. Start another thread for that.

If you want to join our monitoring group then you will need to join the site and ask for an invite.

can't wait for the results 'cos embarq has been seriously lacking in their service in the last week and i need to know what's going on - their techs haven't the foggiest idea.

I figured it out..just not many participating I guess...

On Another note...

I notice very high pings on my graph everyday between 6pm and 10pm EST. What does this represent as far as service troubles?

The link to view others in the group is »/testh ··· ?view=18. The link to our group is in the forum links on the front page in the forum's links. It's labeled Embarq Monitors.

As far as service troubles and high pings, I don't know. You may want to start a new thread about it.

You need to group these by region (at least by state) because as it is right now it's a page of pretty pictures but really doesn't say much if you don't know where people are.

I've asked members to put their location in the public comment of their line monitoring. If they choose not to that is their choice.

I have no plans at this time to break up this group and then start one for each Embarq region which is the only way that grouping could be done that I know of. I am already watching over 5 groups including this one.

If you still want to see where the group members are located, you can check their profile page to see if they have listed their location.

So, how would I go about doing this on Linux? All the software that's in the FAQ is for Windows only. And no, I don't want to run anything in WINE. It's too finicky for me to waste time with it.
