I found something interesting over the holidays:
I was setting up an old computer to give away
for xmas. I thought I would install 'bluelight.com'
on there (yes, part of Kmart) to give her some basic
email. When I went to find the local access numbers
for bluelight, loe & behold I noticed something interesting.
Some of the same numbers are those that my ISP has givin
me for access lines we pay for. I couldn't beleive it:
what my ISP has been charging me for, I could have gotten for free!
That also explains why I had so many users complaining about
not being able to dialup!
After that, I threw in another modem bank in my router
and decided to do it myself.
