I went through the same thing with AT&T broadband. In some areas, their
registration just isn't compatible with macs (no amount of cookies or
proxies will fix it, your registration will not go through and time out).

It sucks, but he's right... You'll have to use a PC to connect, or have them
come out with their laptop. If you're in a larger more established area,
then it isn't so hard... Otherwise you can be screwed and the techs just
normally don�t bring them out.

The bad part is AT&T sometimes just has weird problems with their accounts,
having to close them out and needing you to reregister... And you'll have to
do it with a PC or wait till they can send someone out who can do it for
you.
