Yeah this the funny part about Tel$tra. I can pay _ALL_ my bills over the internet except the actual internet bill itself.
Every time I have connection problems they want me to uninstall and reinstall my NIC drivers and PPPoE software. I usually tell them I've done that already, then they ask where does it stop working and depending on the problem/logs I'm having I tell them it's the progress bar times out or authentication problems... hee hee works for me. I think Tel$tras problem is that they have script kiddies working there.. possibly playing CS on their Wireplay network and do maintenance after school which is why it's always down after 5:30pm-6:00pm. They don't do maintenance late at night because these kids have to go to bed. This explains everything to me...see. thanks, George Vieira Systems Manager Citadel Computer Systems P/L -----Original Message----- From: Erik de Castro Lopo [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Monday, 17 December 2001 7:33 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: [SLUG] Cable providers On Mon, 17 Dec 2001 18:55:47 +1100 Erik de Castro Lopo <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: I forgot the biggest irony of them all. 10) I cannot pay for the bigpong service over the net, nor via BPay.
