OK, I'm back. I wasn't going to pay these fools over at Adelphia $5 a month to rent a cable modem so I went out and bought my own. Well, I took the old one back to them told them my new Cable Modem's MAC address and they said it should be working my 6:00pm EDT 7-19. Well 6:00 came and went and it still was not working. Woke up this morning and it still was not working. So I called them up and said WTF why isn't my internet working. Well, aparently my modem was provisioned for the wrong network or something like that. Well needless to say I'm back up and folding again. All is well. Atleast my machines got a well deserved break. Since they have been running 24x7 for about the last 4-5 months.

L8ter dudes

Fold On!!!

Don't you just love the way these guys operate. My cable modem rent is 10 a month now, but goes down to 3.95 next month but they raised the connect rate to keep the monthly bill the same. What a racket, but it beats the hell out of dialup!! Oh, and welcome back.

Yeah, I wasn't gone that long though about a day and a half. It wasn't the end of the world.

NO that $10 a month emobley3 was paying was for the cable modem rental, that didn't include the cost to connect to the internet. And another thing, I don't back anyone up, I lead the charge! So I hope you don't mind the sonic boom that's to come in about a week, when I go smoking by you!:D

I love to her the "super sonic" BOOM when a fellow Folding SpeedGuider breaks the speed of sound while passing me! :eek:

Truth be know, I think a few have "broke wind" in my direction while passing me! :D

Glad that you are back AB! :)

FOLD ON!!!! CHARGE!!!! :D
