and hopefully they don't say "you have to use our modems, we don't provision modems purchased by the customer" which is the case where I live.. use our $1.98 walmart modems or be without roadrunner.

I know it sounds odd... but apparently Insight Communications of Central Ohio has an issue where at 12:00noon every day... RoadRunner in certain areas drops and is intermittent for an hour... I am a tech there and I heard this about 3 times before I talked to a higher-up about it.... apparently some ...

I used to like fords.... but man... this one I'm driving is terrible.. bucks on the expressway..... coughs, sputters, I think I even heard a backfire once...

I would be plenty POed if my service started to suck cause someone on my node was stealing all the bandwidth.. as far as I'm concerned this is a bad thing.

Interesting but bad!

Mental Note to self: If I ever build a home, I won't use that spray in ground up cardboard insulation in the attic.. WTF?!?

I don't know what kind of meter it is yet.. as I haven't received it yet. I got a ford f150 with a cap... the thing is pretty screwed up though.... 64K miles and it seems to have an injector clogged or something..

been out for 2 days on my own now.. its been ok.. haven't really had many problems..

Just got my truck today and should start running routes this week. been in training for awhile.. but I have a question for the seasoned guru's out there.

we use a signal level meter and test the signals on cable channel 5 and 79 to judge if the signals at the modem are proper, however different ...

Comcast customer data left open to public on the web!!

Thanks Kip,

I just don't know what to think... it all started the morning of Friday 1/25/02, modem was connected but wouldn't do anything... I had an IP and everything but no throughput. It came back up on Monday 1/28/02 but Since then I haven't been able to rely on my connection at all. I've been ...

High pings are better than massive packet loss.. which is what I'm dealing with... sometimes as high as 40% packet loss to my default gateway... if it goes much higher my connection just says bye bye. Here is a snippet of my last ping to my default gateway.. packet loss was better but check out the ...

yup.. they seem to have fixed the problem.. thanks for the info though!

I have a gateway linux server on my network with the ip of 192.168.1.1 that provides internet to the rest of my computers. but that IP is listed on the RR.com DNS servers as being spider.columbus.rr.com. when I log into my gateway from my other box(192.168.1.2) it says ive logged in from Xterm2 ...

I just went to login to my gateway and got a strange message that I last logged in from xterm2.columbus.rr.com which is impossible, since I logged in from inside my local network... am I wrong or has someone done a boo boo at rr.com? look at that last one.. its a HP Laserjet 5 :-)

Last login: Mon ...

hmmm.. I have the same board with a 900mhz tbird.. never seen anything like that happen... do you have the hard drives on the highpoint controller? and do you have a soundblaster live that is using IRQ 5 for "sb16 emulation"? this could cause the problem. there is a great KT7-KT7A faq at www ...

Hello,

I've had cable modem service thru insight now since august 2000 and man it really dropped off the last few days.. about 3 days ago I got my fastest DSL report ever. 2308/377. now I can barely get above modem speeds, yes modem speeds.. I got a 19/336 the other night!!! now I know speed ...

sounds like exactly the problem I used to have with my NIC card.. I had a Netgear FA310TX 100/10 which would start out really fast after a reboot and then slowly trickle down till I had no connection at all. I replaced it with a 3com card and its been fine ever since. However since then I have built ...

actually yes, I did do a bunch of things to my system.. however not since I got great speed.. now it seems to have gotten back to normal.. hopefully it stays that way.. I just got a 2203/377 which is good! earlier today and last night it was horridly slow..
