Just attempted to dial in via Sunnyvale. After 3 busies, got a connection
and tried to log on.  It wouldn't take my NW56 login/password.

Tried again.  Got on after one busy.  Same result -- it wouldn't take
my NW56 login/password.

Tried logging on via San Jose North.  Got on-line after five or six
busies.  Same result -- it wouldn't take my NW56 login/password.

I double-checked to be sure I didn't have my caplocks pressed.  I know
my password for NW56 by heart, but copied it out of the encrypted
"cheat sheet" I keep directly into the Password window.  No joy.

This is the first time in 48 hours or so that I've been able to get
a connection from NW56, but something is =DEFINITELY= wrong.
