I've had @home service exclusively for almost a year, I've had problems in the past similar to yours but the service has been rock solid here (Detroit) for over 3 months straight now. I don't use their email (have my own domain and server) so I can't really comment on that aspect. No doubt since they are a national provider and are continuously adding local cable company customers in large blocks, I'm sure this will be an ongoing problem for certain areas for some time to come. -- _________________________ John Lyon System Administrator http://home.tbinet.org
