Re: When to refer to the AT&T Direct forum, and how An additional thought. I started a thread yesterday about high latency on my DSL links. There's not much of anything in the "regular" forum about it, and I haven't gotten any responses so far. However, if you go to the Direct forum, there are MANY entries about high latency. Wouldn't it make more sense to have these threads start in the regular forum, where everyone could benefit from the answers (because you can't see what's going on in the Direct forum). The moderators, then, might be able to kind of "aggregate" the problems and send one request to the Direct Forum rather than having everyone dump their questions in there. For example, I can see through a visual traceroute that a number of SBC routers are injecting a high amount of latency into the circuit. I can identify them, although they're probably part of a group. That's a problem that's probably affecting a lot of users. We don't ALL need to put an entry into the Direct Forum for that. The mods might be able to see something like that, or the members could point it out. Seems like a "team approach" might make the whole forum work better. Like I said in my earlier post, tho, I'm probably missing something. |
