Yeah, took my laptop over to my relatives' house, and used the wifi at work. (Shhhhhhh!)
But having a good connection at home is worlds more easy & convenient.

Is anyone else having problems with DSL this morning?   I can receive, but I can't send.

I just spoke to Verizon and they were having problems throughout their system in sending email.   I was just able to send the messages in my outbox so maybe it's fixed.  They were also having problems in their dial-up system.

For some reason most of my hotmail messages are blank - some with very necessary information I need to refer to.  Has anyone else had this problem?

Internet access problems?

Anyone besides me unable to access the internet for the last couple of hours?  I dunno if it was just my computer, but I decided that it wasn't worth trying to call Verizon unless I still couldn't get on here in the morning.  Maybe a weather-related problem?  Everything seems fine now.

I did call Verizon, they said there was an outage in the 760 area. It wasn't just you.

I got the same automated response.

I couldn't work all day due to this outage.  Are there other alternatives to Internet access?

Thanx for the responses!  I'm such a computer dolt  that I'm never sure if I did something wrong or what.  I didn't do anything different than usual, just couldn't connect.  :-\  Glad it wasn't just me. 

ChattyCathy, when I went to post this, your message came up first.  Mine was only out for less than 2 hrs.  So I took a nap.  :laugh:  I couldn't get onto the internet with either IE or Firefox.  Someone else will have to tell you if there is another way to access the internet.

What is Linkline?  Another ISP?

I still Internet access but its a lot more reliable. We used it for 7 years or more and we've only had 2 outages.

Yes Linkline is another ISP and provides service to Wrightwood in places that Verzion refuses.

How do you access Linkline?  Is it something like Linkline.com?  How do you switch from one ISP to another?  Well, I guess you can have multiple access locations.....since I have both IE and Firefox on here.   :-\

This must sound really stupid to those of you out there who are computer geniouses.   ;)
