I took a vacation day Nov.2 from work and started making calls to sales/billing @ 8AM. Eleven (11), yes 11 calls later I finally got a rep/card reader, that had a clue that I needed to downgrade to dial up, (this maintains your account).. They need to disconnect 768/128 frame relay DSL, and reorder ATM DSL after disconnection. What a pain but thats the only way. As you have read elsewhere it doesn't always go smoothly. Nov. 14 was supposed to be the activation day, but after I called them again on the 15Th, I was told, "sorry, line conditioning"??? The activation date is now Dec.2. Meanwhile the new Westel 2100 modem that they sent promptly still sits blinking away with no sync. Today at ~10AM I noticed the sync LED is solid!!!:) Yea they Finally did it... a whole day ahead of schedule
. It's been a longgg month on dial up
Even worse is having the better half totally PO'd at me for not being able to blow things up on line. But it has turned out to be worth it. Good ping times (I think) and good speed. Just glad no more dial up, even for a month, it's the __it's
