Did someone just vacuum the brains out of the collective DSLR membership?

| Dude, I think you posted to the wrong place. That Godaddy stuff is in a nother thread
As for Fios and Verizon, it is NOT without pain. I have it now. I'm doing 15/2. But I do not have their phone nor IPTV package (the TV plan is coming, so the techs said...but its not available to me).
They install the wiring (with my help) and didn't seal up the hole (I now have to silicone it). I didn't receive a receipt of install (but an electronic file to save and printout). They set my Wifi on the Dlink to ON and made me SSID my name! (the DLink has no feature to disable SSID broadcast...the D624 firmware is custom to Verizon...so I turned it off for now). They weren't sure I was to get Wifi router (I know my signup email has Wireless DLink router listed). They showed up late and I was last of the day (wish Verizon had called to tell me this...my thumb is sore). Other than that, the techs were pretty honest and got the work done quickly.
But hey, Comcast is worse. I called a day after FIOS was up and running to cancel my HiSpeed with Comspastic. The usual "how can we keep you" speech. However, I have records on file that they were unable to resolve my issues and I asked to disconnect my HiSpeed service. CS was nice about. Well, they disconnected ALL my service! Not too happy when the Pat/Bronco game went out. Then all the service was out. Then call to Comcast and they had me down for disconnect! |

| A couple of points:
1. FiOS TV is not IPTV. Well, to be precise, the VOD part of it is, but the bulk of it is just an RF overlay on a different wavelength.
2. You can turn off SSID broadcast - it is in the Performance menu of the Advanced section in the configuration. |
