no

well how come I used to have to connect, but now

sorry...DSL, and I live in PA

When I used to use Verizon I had to actually connect to the internet (PPPOE), but recently I forgot to do that but it still worked. So my question is, did Verizon do away with the whole PPPOE thing

Does anyone know if spybot offers real time protection like Microsoft or is it just to scan for spyware and remove it

The test is probally cached, clear the cach and try the test again

Check the antenna on the router, is it screwed in properly? Do you have the wireless card on my computer turned on?

Unplug the router for like 30 secends and plug it back in, that might work

I've heard Cavilier is slow,they suck and they block ports?

I was thinking about getting Cavtel DSL and just wanted to know a few things. 1.What kind of modem does it come with? cause if its not wireless I'll stay with Verizon unless Cavtel lets me use my current modem 2.Is the speed really 10Mbps? I am paying 30 bucks a month for 768Kbps from Verizon 3.Does the price stay at $25 a month, or does it go up? 4.Is it reliable? 5.Do they require PPPoe? If anyone who has Cavalier DSL and can answer my questions thank you

No, I have a Westell modem

Yeah, and that price is only for NEW customers

15 bucks a month is only for new customers

I just took it to a computer repair place, I am hoping they will just put a new video card in. good thing its still under warrenty

Ok, after using the computer for long periods of time my computer will somtimes restart itself and give me a error message about the video card. Other times the video card gets stuck in an infinite loop and I have to shut my computer down for an hour. or somtimes I get an error message that the display driver/video card is not responding. the video card is ATI MOBILITY RADEON 7000 IGP. I have downloaded the latest driver from the website but that didnt work. Is there anything I can do to fix the problem? thanks

Try using system restore

Well I just want to know why the speed upgrade did work and now it doesnt

You may have been downgraded to allow more people on your block get DSL

ok, I justt call Verizon about the Speed upgrade issue and they said there highest speed is 768Kbps are these people stupid? my speed was 1.5Mbps for about 2 hours, Verizon people are really stupid

thanks I'll see what the speed is in a couple of days

lets see if anyone can help me...The other day I had called Verizon about a speed upgrade from 768/128kbps to 1.5Mbps/128Kbps the lady said it would take 24 hours ok I go back to my computer 24 hours later 3:30PM EST and take a speed test to see if it worked and it did I know HAD my upgraded speed. ok I am all happy and stuff now. I go back to my computer 4 hours later to take another speed test but now it said my speed was 768Kbps/128Kpbs (my old speed). does anyone know why I was downgraded? I am really pissed and I don't feel like spending all day with Verizon on hold. If anyone can help thanks
