I paused for a moment and considered how interesting it is that a problem with an online service is now headline news...
Austin CableVision ( Time/Warner ) was down all night starting with the first clap of thunder last night. Happens everytime we get a thunderstorm!! I have yet to see a report in the local news rag of these regular outages, let alone National news. My Net connection has yet to Drop via SW Bell from my house to the rest of the wired universe. How could I ever count on Cable for a Net connection? Wireless in the Gigahertz range would at least recover when the intense rains stopped. This is much faster recovery of service than my Time/Warner Cable service which takes hours to come back on, long after the rains stopped! Just can't count on cable when it counts. Buth this doesn't make even the Local News. Maybe because it is such old news!!!!............. Ronald Barron Yokubaitis A Texas NetWorking, Inc. Texas Networking Inc.
