-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Tim, you are not the only person suffering problems with usworst. I have been trying to get DSl here at my new home for over 3 months now. for the first month, they wouldn't even tell me what was wrong (just that a technical issue existed with the line) and after that, they have told me that I am: 1. in a fiber service area (further checking reveals that this is not factual) 2. on a line with significant routing problems requiring a pair gain amp 3. in an area where DSL is not available (false. 3 of my other neighbors here have gotten DSl within the last 3 months!) As near as I can figure, usworst is playing silly games with me. I have been talking to a large number of techs over there and have started hearing "off the record" commentary stating this impression: "even if the line qualifies, you will not recieve the service". USWEST refuses to fix the problems, or reprovision my telco service under the existing contract that I have (A contract that stipulated that the line be DSL provisioned for my service upon installation). I also might want to contact Jay and see if he can offer e a wireless option (considering my location, the wiredglobal main center is less than a mile from here).

USWorst is dicking around and not removing the bridge taps or testing the line or something...we have all the equipment but no signal and our ISP, Zyan, doesn't seem to hold any sort of influence over Covad/USWorst.
