Do you keep it on 24/7?              >and now if the phone goes out I'm still connected!              I think Hughsnet has too much latency for VOIP, but I just fired AT&T       after being a regular customer for over a half-century. It felt good!       Now we use cable Internet and OOMA VOIP. The change cut our       communications bill in half. I kept my old phone number, but left 90%       of the crappy spam sales calls behind. OOMA filters them out!

Still no love on that front huh?              Those types are still around. One in particular.              Vaughn              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
