It was sold to me as a 24/7 connection option! therefore, I am using it 
24/7, but I do see your point, the main reason I do use it is to make sure 
that I can access it when I need to. unless of course you can tell me why 
when I'm on the other number, I can't dial into freeserve. ie: will connect, 
but then refuses to authenticate. it's not just freeserve, it's other isp's 
too!, and it's not just my main server, I have the same effect on other 
machines too (not just unix, windows as well).
