This happened while I was reconfiguring my router and firewall. Nothing like tinkering with your connection to the outside world, and having that connection go down from the other end. I called up BAN and asked them what the problem was. They told me they don't support Linux. I said I'm using NT 4.0 sp5 now. I rebooted because I know you don't support Linux. They said they don't support sp5. I asked them if they had any way for me to test to see if I was sending the correct signals to the modem. They said no. I whiped the NT partition, replaced the NIC, reinstalled the software, and called them back. Only then would they admit the problem was on their end. Monday morning when I went to check my stocks it was still down. While this was going on a rather strange thing had taken place. IFCI had closed with what was almost certainly an erronious bid. This caused the valuation of my portfolio to drop to 10% above margin. Datek Online automatically liquidated my entire portfolio with the exception of IFCI. This cost me $3400.00 in real money, and about $10,000 in earnings if I still had the same portfolio today. I'm rather unhappy with Bell Atlantic right now. I am not even going to say what I feel toward Datek. I can say I don't have an account with thme, and they have been instructed to communicate exclusively via certified mail. Anybody know a good lawyer in the DC area? As regards my connection to BAN using Linux, I am chicken for now. I use the rp-pppoed. It works like a champ as long as BAN doesn't drop the line on me.
