So, on that note... What are some of the better DSL providers available
around here? I'm looking for a decent price on a 768/384 absolute minimum
speed. I'd prefer one that is techie friendly - i.e. low bandwidth servers
allowed, email/web space optional, and reverse DNS would be icing. ;) I
know _someone_ on the list is happy with their ISP, right? ...right? Is an
ISP that just provides a connection, no questions asked, available without
paying hundreds of dollars for a "business" account?
As of right now things are cool in St. Petersburg. If they ever do start
port blocking, I'll be canceling my roadrunner account, no question.
Service in the last year+ has been phenomenal (down only once the night they
upgraded the whole Tampabay area), and speeds have been great, but at this
point I just can't live without my servers. ;)

BTW, do you know who's on the other end of the complaint line? In other
words, would it do any good to call and complain in advance? :)

Subject: [SLUG] time warner port blocking
If you have not found out yet, TWC is blocking incomming tcpip port 80 for
their residentianl customers in central florida. Accosding to the tech
support (and testing proves it to be true) they are presently blocking only
incomming port 80. Examining my apache log files, this apparently (and
covertly) started Jan 24. Is anyone else experiencing this? Pleading with
the tech support, "Please open it up for me, I use Linux," proved not to be
helpful. I conveyed my displeasure not having been notifued to this
impending change. He just gave me a number to call to complain. Is anyone
else experiencing this?
