Welcome to IWETHEY!

New What to do? DSL contract is almost up.
I have SBC for $29.99/month, and have sh*tty service and cannot run servers.

Other DSL companies are offering $49.99 and I can run servers on my IP.

I am poor, yet want to be able to run servers from my DSL IP. I registered normad.com and use DirectUpdate to update my Dynamic IP to it. Web server at [link|http://www.normad.com/|http://www.normad.com/] using IIS and XP Pro. Once I get Linux installed, it will be under Linux, as well as a mail server, etc. See if the images load and stuff. It was on a Windows 2000 Server and SBC blocked part of the packets so that images would not load and only X bytes got transmitted. Then again W2K may have been going wonky on me as well. :) Let me know if anyone can view web pages, etc on the server. Or if it is being blocked. If it is not blocked, I may stay with SBC and get the discount.

For another test, I need to set up my old BBS using Telnet. I'll do that later. It is getting late tonight.

New If you move, check about Speakeasy migration...

Imric's Tips for Living
  • Paranoia Is a Survival Trait
  • Pessimists are never disappointed - but sometimes, if they are very lucky, they can be pleasantly surprised...
  • Even though everyone is out to get you, it doesn't matter unless you let them win.


Nothing is as simple as it seems in the beginning,
As hopeless as it seems in the middle,
Or as finished as it seems in the end.
 
 
New I did check Speakeasy.net
they want $99 and $119 for DSL lines in my area. No ADSL is offered, only SDSL and some other weird DSL standard. Too rich for my blood.

New Very strange...
It's $49 back in 'Jersey.

Oh well - too bad. It's nice to pay for bandwidth, without the ISP telling you what you are allowed to do with it, though.

If you have to change again in the future, do be sure to check for Speakeasy again, though.

New Re: I did check Speakeasy.net
These are ISDN by another name - permanent leased lines with low bandwidth.

New Some of us, anyway. At least most of the time. :-)
New In this area
Most of the DSL and cable providers have a statement in the contract prohibitting servers unless you are paying the "company" rate.

So, no answer. Sorry.

Good luck.

I do hold an englishman's brothel is his castle , where he should behave accordingly--as many flash tails as he likes , but none of the troop fornications that the orientals and germans indulge in. Its not the indecency I mind , but the company of a lot of boozy brutes hallooing and kicking up a deuce of a row when I want to concentrate and give off my best. A regular bacchanalia is something to see right enough, but I am with the discriminating Frog who said that one is interesting, but only a cad would make a habit of it.
