Modem Wait Time?

NSdsl join:2002-12-18 Danvers, MA	Modem Wait Time? How long did it take for the modem to arrive from Worldcom? After waiting for 2 long weeks for Speakeasy and Verizon to free up my phone line I have finally decided to install a second line. Cyberonic says my line should be live on the 24th. They still don't have a ship date from Worldcom regarding the Modem, but they claim it should be shipped today.

NSdsl join:2002-12-18 Danvers, MA	Good luck! I should have installed the second line weeks ago. Instead I had to listen to Speakeasy blame Verizon and then Verizon blamed Speakeasy. I'm sure my other line is still not released. Cyberonic seems to be doing alright I got the second line installed last Friday and called them back to switch my DSL number. If they can get me up in a week that would be awesome. Hopefully Worldcom actually ships the Modem. Did they Email you a tracking number? Did you have to be home to sign for it?

My line was ready last Friday -- the same day UPS tried to deliver the modem (Efficient Networks) so I had to sit out the weekend. I tried using cyberonic's dialup, but never did get it to work.

NSdsl join:2002-12-18 Danvers, MA	reply to adb94103 Thanks for the responses. Man that would suck if I miss UPS tomorrow. Believe me you didn't miss much with this crappy dialup.

rdsport323 join:2001-05-28 Irvine, CA	HA! I ordered myservice on the 7th or 8th of January. I haven't received my modem yet.. My line became active about a week ago on the 15th or 16th. I should be pissed as hell, and nagging and calling and complaining.. but, at this opint, I dont really care cuz I was able to tweak my 5660 Speedstream into working with the Worldcom systems. So, I dont have to hassle them to change my modem into bridge, or anything. Id be surprised if I ever see my modem. which brings a question to mind.. If I have no modem, I would not have any viable means of accessing the service.. So would I still be charged for the DSL, since technically, I wouldnt be able to connect?

NSdsl join:2002-12-18 Danvers, MA	reply to NSdsl Damn! No Modem yet. I hate the fact you can't use your own equipment, (unless Gigantopithicus can hook me up?) I am probably not alone when I tell you I have a box full of dsl modems. It's such a tease when the light turns green and you have to wait for their "Special" equipment
