No Net Access
Date: 8/6/2005
Hey all, bad news, my cable modem has apparently died so email and releases are going to be patchy at best over the next 2-3 weeks. Hopefully we'll be able to jury rig up some temporary access while I wait for a new service provider to provision up a new connection for me.

Great! just what I needed.

Update: My current research indicates that a Billion 5100 and iiNet is going to get me a kick arse connection for A$99(+shipping) setup + A$50/mth + whatever the bundled phone deal costs (A$30+calls/mth). Currently my exchange just has the craptastic Telstra DSLAM's in it, but come 4th quarter this year it'll be upgraded to ADSL2 DSLAM's and I'd automatically get upgraded to a 8000/1000 kbit connection.

Update2: Ok so now it's working again. But it's an on again off again deal. Sometimes power cycling it works other times it doesn't. I'll probably be able to limp along while ADSL is provisioned for me. "Yay". *shlump*

All these people are having exactly the same problem as me.

"Always On" broadband? Yeah right.
