Damn Slow Line?

alternateorg on May 3, 2001

Does anyone have Qwest DSL in Colorado? Have you noticed slow / flaky / fucked-up DNS? I’d call them and ask, you know, but it seems I might get a quicker answer as to what’s wrong here.

    I’ve been having problems with their DNS for the last two days. They have assured me that there are no service problems. Funny, that would imply that they provide a service in the first place….

    Heh. I added the secondary DNS to my airport-serving machine, and that seemed to help a little.

    Well, did you know that ALL your current accounts with Qwest are soon to be handed to MSN. Yup, that’s right, MSN will soon be your ISP! LOL

    Actually, if you had a fucking clue and did your research you would know that Qwest is an open network, meaning you can use any ISP you want. Also, its merely MSN and Qwest are partnering to offer a lame commercial internet service that they can advertise for cheap to the newbies, they are NOT replacing there “internet based network” with an “online service”.
