I'm having the same problem with my Anytime
dialup.
Several times its kicked me out after 2 or 3
emails
have been downloaded,
but the biggest problem is connecting in the first
place.
It
takes well over a minute now for the connection to network to be verified,
and
it
only connects once in every 5 or 6 trys.
I
have learnt just to grin and bear it or go back at another time to try
again.
Luckily for me I'm getting the adsl self-install
in
3 weeks or so, so hopefully
I'll leave all this behind.

Currently BT are pi##ing me off. every night
>from
at a time. For some reason their servers do stop responding...It has got
to the point, each time when I connect I can send 1 or 2 emails at most
immediately after verifying name and password. After that...my machine
keeps trying to get the BT server, but it does not responds...eventually
logged off, then redial.
Before 10pm odds.....service is usually fine
2hours or more each time...
Does anybody have any idea what is going
on...Spoke to BTinternet Tech support at 60p/min :-( and they were
useless... "maybe its the exchange...nothing we can do...no way of knowing
how often you have logged on etc....Told, sorry requested he look at logs
and email me back confirming this conversation, but he has no email
system....Pass it on to supervisor then...." I will sir"...(yes
result)......"but he will not be able to do anything" (aw
f###).
Please do try to get somebody to look into
it.....(I was frustrated and £8 odds worse off).
IF I didn't need to keep my email address I
would tell them to shove it where the sun don't shine....
I've stuck with them through the hard times
(coz it was a yearly plan may have had little to do with it).
Now to try 151
Any ideas gratefully received, I remember
talk about DACS boxes or somehting like in the past, could these do this,
if neighbours are online etc.
ADSL is in Paisley and Renfrew...I',m in
Houston (the middle) 5 miles either way...sods law
Forgot to note...email is affected, so it is
definetely the server to pc link and not the internet as the guy kept
suggesting
