Go for http://www.providerliste.ch/ and look around for
other Providers. l noticed TBW's failure last night as well , and
it was not the first this week. A tracerouting to an outside
server was blocked just after the dialin router' s IP Number;
DNS worked fine.

TBW is in general quite reliable in access providing and is getting
noticably faster in what concerns US and Backbone Performance.

Regarding the postings against TBW over the last few weeks : One should not
forget that the Internet is running between Computers, and Computers just
tend to
crash sometimes. If you really need reliable Internet Access at all the time,
then you should
go for more than just one single Provider and stop blaming each partial
service interruption of TBW (especially because the interruptions never
last for long).

Newsgroups: http://www. newsguy.com/ prooves to be an extremely
reliable Newsgroup Source , but you have to throw in extra Dollars
for that.
