Re: AT&T sucks
I was at a ladies house today setting her DSL up. They sent her one of those grey/white 2wire routers. I connected, got redirected to the usual 'set up your account' page. I've done this before where it downloads an activex control or executable for browser/modem communication. It tried to re-direct to a img.yahoo.com site to download the executable...domain dosen't exist
I didn't remember the other registration site offhand, so I had to put my grandmothers sbc dsl information to her modem (I know her account username/password). She hopefully wasn't using it...and was able to get to the at&t registration site, register this lady and put her username/network password into the modem. Probably kicked my grandmother off during this time
2wire is worse, cause availability is somewhat spotty, they might give you service and tell you you can only watch tv on only one converter at a time, happened to a client of mine. he was piiiisseed
