    Hello Tiny,

    Take a look at Tek Savvy. teksavvy.com. I considered the switch
    before I did it and haven't been disappointed.

    I was with them for years and years here. Unfortunaly when Rocky
    retired the company went down hill fast. They kept lowering my
    speeds from what I wanted to the 6mb package, I would call sit on hold
    for 4- 6 hours to be told Bell must have done it. Charge me $150
    setup fee AGAIN to raise the speed back to 15mb, then a month later it would be 6mb again.

    I have only been with Tek Savvy for a few months but so far my experiences with
    them have all been good.

    I had to call them 3 or 4 times when I first got setup and they answered every time within two minutes and were quick with a solution every time.

    The last time I called them I just told them to shove it right up
    their ass, been with fido/robbers cable since. Also has issues but
    at least it's fast.

    Is that Rogers you are talking about? Please don't sign a contract with them. 'nuf said.

    I was paying Telus $90 a month for a 50MB DSL connection. I now pay Tek Savvy $49 for a 60MB Cable connection. Telus could never quite do 50 and Tek Savvy always does just better than 60.

    Consdiering D'Bridge moves the mail for zone 1 in fidonet (and
    possibly zone 2) I'd say it is most likly a config error.

    I've seen D'Bridge updates coming in here that make me curious. One day I'm going to open a dosemu box for a look. I can remember looking it over and wondering "how does all this work" :)

    Ttyl :-),

    That's good. Maybe they have improved again.

    Yeah Robbers cable. ;) I'm with the re-seller side called Fido here.
    It's like Teksavvy except Fido is also owned by Robbers, it's just
    much much cheaper.

    It's pretty amazing the way he's got it working with BinkD to be
    honest. I setup D'Bridge again the other day because there was a
    packet that was causing Irex to crash. Grabbed all the packets that
    way. ;)
