Author: CLint1 [ Edit \| View ]	Date Posted: 08:20:09 07/16/01 Mon It's your local ISP, why don't you change to Prodigy..When I come up on the net, it automatically dials a 800 number and connects me into a OC3 server north of Houston Texas. It is a super connection and I'm using a dial-up modem...

Author: Kimmy [ Edit \| View ]	Date Posted: 10:33:30 07/16/01 Mon Today, Dp is working great, but BT is acting a little sticky. If this keeps up, I'll have to check into something else, like Prodigy. I don't get it, they just did upgrades on our server, it has been crappy ever since. Oh well......

to check out prodigy, and according to their site, the 800 numbers are an additional 10 cents a minute. I can't afford that. I have a local number to access my server and it doesn't cost anything. Guess, I'll just keep plugging along with the one I have for a while longer. Why would they charge an additional 10 cents a minute on a 800 number?
Too rich for my blood.

Author: janiece [ Edit \| View ]	Date Posted: 20:42:45 07/16/01 Mon I want to pay a flat fee for unlimited usage with either a local dial up or toll free number.

Author: Clint1 [ Edit \| View ]	Date Posted: 23:33:13 07/16/01 Mon Don't apply for their 800 number. The reason I have it is because 1. they don't have a contract with any local ISP's here. 2. If the service sucks and you complain, they will automatically connect you to their 800 number. All I can say is it is a wonderful Internet server. I also use Netsacape and not Prodigy's Browser..

Author: Kimmy [ Edit \| View ]	Date Posted: 23:49:06 07/16/01 Mon After almost 2 hours on the phone to my server people, nothing accomplished. I decided I would download Netscape and see if it had the same damn problem. Low and behold, speed like you wouldn't believe. It is absolutely amazing. Maybe it is something screwy with IE???? Thanks for the info on Prodigy, may still need it....

Author: Clint1 [ Edit \| View ]	Date Posted: 23:58:15 07/16/01 Mon I have IE, but very seldom use it. I always liked Netscape. Glad you found the problem. And people are always knocking Hotmail, but I have had good luck with it and I see other people bitch about their email provider..Been with hotmail for over 6 years now...
