I'm on Primus, too.  But I can't get through costomer supports inability 
to inderstand LInux.  I signed up years ago with an ISP called dsl.ca 
because it had competent tech support that didn't freak when you 
mentioned Linux.  They even said that a number of their technicials used 
Linux at home, and really knew what had to be done client-side.

Three corporate takeovers later, it's become a mess.

At the moment, even pings to IP numbers don't get through.  But the mail 
still seems to arrive.  Maybe it leaks through in stray moments when 
things work for a minute or two.  I don't know.  But I'll know something 
sometimes works if I actually see this email showing up on the MLUG 
mailing list.
