Is anybody else having intermittent Internet access problems with
@Home?  Web, mail and FTP services sometimes do not work since last
night.  For example, sometimes I cannot access Yahoo and my own site,
and the next minute I can.
 
I am using Cogeco @Home in Oakville.  I have tried unplugging the cable
modem for a minute, but it hasn't made a difference.

Rogers has been like that for a few days - my guess is that there's water
in some connection due to the vast amount of rain we've received in the last
week. Of course, since it's so intermittent, talking to them would be futile.
It could be nimda affected servers but it doesn't seem like it from my experience.
It's supposed to be warmer and drier the next few days - let's see if it improves.

More importantly, they are losing my e-mail again  - but how can you prove it?
I know because I am missing my awad stuff from yesterday at least,
Given that many of their tech support people can't even read or write accurately,
I hesitate to even call them on this.
