    It hasnt just been a couple of hours... Its been down for 4-5 hours at a time, on 3 or 4 separate occasions.

    And were you on the net the same exact time your brother was?

    I don't know where you've been, but this is a NATIONAL problem. Check forums, people all across the country are complaining about the same problem.

    Btw, in order to get the refund, you have to manage to get through on their 800 line. Once you do that, after about an hours wait, you can speak to a representative and get your $1.43.

    They really should devise some kind of way to repay customers... They look at it from a black and white stand point: Pay for the time that the connections offline.

    However, its not that simple. Their connection going up/down constantly, disrupts peoples businesses and education (along with file sharing and porn browsing, hehe).

    Anyway, I think that they'll quickly realize they should have done something when they start losing some of their customer base over the next few weeks. DSL is widely available, and for much cheaper prices.. even if it is slightly less speedy.

    It was nationwide you n00b. If you were using different nameservers, or weren't online during the outages.. thats your fault.
