Hey everyone. There is a problem with our DSL right now that causes real flaky connection. I was told there is something with the connection box. Phone company have been and will be slow and I most likely will be off the forums for a week or two from tomorrow. :(

I will see you guys when the phone line is fixed.

Good luck Jerboy, see you in a few days/weeks.

Do you have a modem? You could always get on over a dial-up

yeah, you must have a modem laying around somewhere........or someone you know does. Then you can use it for the singular reason of checking AT. :)

Actually I'm empathising.. the tech in me hates to see computer related stuff that isn't working well no matter who it belongs to.


Jerboy, borrow a modem if need be and stay on the DSL peple's rumps till they get the line working correctly

ARGHHHHH don't remind me! I had a nasty unsettleness when there was a problem with DSL a different time. It was ISP's fault so I got free dialup, but right now it will be ten free hours a month, which I'll need to use wisely for alot of research project I have to do. Over ten hours, it's like $1.50 or $1.00 an hour. My parents will kick my ass when they get a $300 phone bill, therefore I better avoid ATOT.

AnandTech have had interfered with my usual tasks on regular basis. I'd get procrastinative, tired, stressed out or bored of something I'm supposed to be doing, then turns myself over to ATOT. On an average day I spend about two to three hours a day here when I'm not out with friends. It's sad.

Is it possible that there could be a more innocent statement so loaded with sarcasm?
