Re: They make no sense. no you do not contract them for Internet. You contract them to provide you access to THEIR private network. In return as an added bonus they connect you to the WWW.
They can give you a wall garden as your "internet" and thats all they have to give you, since they're only leasing you the network half. |

You may contract them for access to their private network but the VAST majority of users are contracting for access to the internet. Most of us want our ISP to be a simple dumb pipe. |

May want to send that memo to their marketing departments.

And I contracted for HDTV too, but instead I get their crap upconverted 480 signal that looks like crap, but is modulated on their HD channel offerings, and counted by them as a high Def channel.....
I pay for internet. What I access or how I access, or how often I access is none of their business.!!!!!
If they don't want to be an "Internet Service Provider", then get the hell out of the internet business.
Don't offer me their crap and call it internet, by their definition. |
