Subject: Re: [SLE] DSL PPPO and Bell Atlantic OT

Over the weekend my Bell Atlantic DSL connection went down.  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.  

Steve
