technical support people at Cellcom (better described as trained 
seals) are of no help whatever.

And please accept my  regrets for the problem of your oven clock.

  that is what I have been feeding the phone -- all lower-case

  For what it's worth, the phone is able to connect with another

Dear list-members,

May I request that the Linux-IL list members take a bold step and leave 
all sarcasm at the door before entering? Generally, the sarcastic 
message can be conveyed in a businesslike manner, without having to 
resort to pejorative comments. Before sending the message, keep in mind 
that it's unpleasant to be the butt of such comments – and it might come 
back to you. What goes around comes around.


Thanks,
Alan

1. Is there MAC filtering or any other filter?
2. DHCP definitions  ( are you using it at all? )
3. Router constraints: number of connected users etc.

I hope you get my drift.

Well, past episodes have been interesting. The RedHat Marketing
(Community, technically) guy was very pushy and avoided questions he
did not want.

In the recent weeks they had e.g. Remind, Autotest and Stutnt Rally,
which were completely non commercial. They also had FreeNAS, which
hadtwo people from the company that maintains FreeNAS (and also a
value-added version of it. They have not avoided technical aspects,
and actually did get a bit into the business side of it and how it works
with Free Software.

Recommended. More news-oriented.

(Dan Lynch was the co-host in that episode)

I also follow http://faif.us/ , which has a different focus (more
legal).
