No, I don't work for @home (or Charter), but is seems to me that when one rants in the newsgroups about a problem that turns out to be in HIS computer, and says things like 'Charter@Home sucks', then he should apologize as profusely as he ranted. Only fair, don't you think? BTW, the lost sync problem can be caused by LOTS of things, like work on a nearby line, and is just something you will have to live with, probably for as long as you have a cable modem. The network problem you mention might have been the one caused by the guy hitting the pole in front of the W. Vickery main office.. I suppose that is Charter's fault, too? -- Ron Hunter rphunter@home.com James Lenaburg & Patrice Stanton wrote: > > NOPE, won't apologize to Charter.
