Yep...i was 97 miles away, when i realized it...went to check on something
or the other, and couldnt get in...Hmm...First i suspected our router, as
it has been prone to such thing...*shrug* Had to drive back, and check it
out...of course, by the time i got back, all was normal again...:(

BellSouth also...I guess now i wait on the management to kick MaBell in
