Well, I guess as I stated earlier 1st prize goes to Allan, you were right a $3.00 modem cost us $91.00. In the past two weeks, we couldn't stay online, and although computer suggested we were still online, one could pick up phone and get dial tone. Initially we had a 6 hour electrical storm that basically kept the night time sky lit up light daylight continuously. Phone company finally got to us on Sat., installed new lines to the road and coupled us to a new line back to station. The technician told us this storm did unprecedent line damage in the area. His repairs did not help our problem. Yesterday my good wife went back to computer shop with computer. She was armed with statistics about modems. She advised he could remove his oriental junk and replace it with a good one. The consumer report about this oriental modem was less than positive. She gave him 3 choices based on comsumer reports.

Probably just as well I wasn't there.
