Title: RE: [SLUG] Problem with Bigpond ADSL
Just letting you know that I still haven't got this connection working.  I will be spending a fair bit of time on it tomorrow morning.  
 
Does anybody know of someone in Telstra support who is quite happy to talk Linux?

what happens if you telnet to the following places and hit enter a few
times

telnet www.bulletproof.net.au 80
telnet melbourne.cache.telstra.net 3128
telnet melbourne.cache.telstra.net 8080
