Just got some news that in a neat twist of sales between PheonixDSL,
Telocity and Megapath, anyone originally on Pheonix's line will be without
support. A friend of mine in the mean time tried to hook up a new firewall
and can't get past his gateway, but can ping the gateway. The windows
box originally installed works fine though. Someone at Level 1 customer
support says "yeah something's wrong" and he won't be able to do anything
until he gets a new Telocity DSL router for his DSL. This of course
will take 3 weeks to ship.
This sound normal? Does the person on the other end of the phone have a
clue? (i.e. Anyone at Telocity/Megapath know the truth of what's going
on with them? ) I have some customers using them for small businesses.
No, cablemodems and other dsl systems aren't available where he is right
now.

:wq!
