Reminds me of a .sig I once saw: Be sure to always carry a piece of fiber optic networking cable with you. If you are ever lost, simply drop the fiber on the ground, wait a few minutes, and then ask the back-hoe operator for directions.
The -only- bad thing I can say about Covad, is that although they have a
static subnets, it is negotiated via PPPoE in there modem. On the upside
to that - I have admin access to said modem. Still a great service
though.
If my existing ADSL modem can do PPPoE, do I still need their modem?
