Even just going down the street to traceroute a local college takes over 20 hops to accomplish where the connection goes up and down the state. Every place I traceroute to has the same first 13 hops before it reaches a "smart" backbone router. Then the backbone connections seem very slow especially the Level3.net ones. I'm just trying to figure out why everything is going so much slower now. Maybe we'll have to wait for Adelphia to work out the kinks, but how long do we wait?]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-home-in-CA-is-the-entire-system-shut-down-1934009 Thu, 06 Dec 2001 03:35:48 EDT http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-home-in-CA-is-the-entire-system-shut-down-1929892
Is the @home Email server(s) totally dead? Has anyone figured out a way to get @home Email forwarded to "any" other address?

Oddly, my internet connections work with no problem so far (knock on wood) and I did not have to do any sort of uninstall. But then, I only had @Home's utilities installed in the first place.

Now for the speed tests.....

Oddly- the modem lights show indicate it is still connected to a network and my @Home diagnostic software indicates the gateway was still open. Hmmmm.....

And what's up with that e-mail? It looks as if they are saying they are going to migrate their customers w/o their consent.
