's have dramatically malnourished their first level support staff which in =
turn has created a resentful and lazy second teir. I am sick of the "It mus=
t be your network/cabling/CPE" attitude that I am getting from some teir 1 =
ISP's. I sick of replacing CSU's and checking extended demarcs while some c=
lown in the POP is re-seating cards in the mux.=0A=0AMoreover stop accusing=
my network of latency issues. I ran the packet capture 100 times and the c=
lient is still send a FIN. The reason your application is slow is because y=
our programmers think sockets are something you plug a can opener into.=0A=
