Here is what I do know.
On the AZIPA list there was another posting from a
consultant who used WiredGlobal for a customer and
that customer is also down so it is not an isolated
case.
I forwarded what I know on to that consultant on the
list for contacting Covad.
If there were any other people cut off, they may not
be able to access the Internet to find out anything
else or read email.
On Monday I am calling JOHN MACMULLIN to find out
just what is going on with WiredGlobal.
If DSLNetworks is telling the truth then there is
the possibility that other services may or may
not stop based on who is getting paid what.
I would assume that Opnix is billing WiredGlobal for
bandwidth and if that is the case, then it would
coust more for operations due to the premium cost
of Opnix bandwidth.
I don't care about my service going down as much as
not being notified ahead of time so I could have been
ready for the cutoff.
It's a lot harder to run a business and do job
searches via email and web without connectivity.
