  1. Found this on another website.

    The blinking power light means that the modem has never been commissioned. Once you get the modem connected to the antenna go to http://192.168.0.1/fs/advanced/advanced.html and click on Setup followed by Registration-Installer. This is where you will do what was former known as a websetup. Once that is properly completed and your new San/Pin entered (or re-entered) you should be in business. You did have a new account setup for the 6000 didn't you? Your 4020 service will need to be canceled and a different account used with the 6000.
  2. I do not agree with Vista being an issue, I have 3.0/1.5 Mbit and I am downloading up to 3.5 on a good day, 3.3 on a normal day and my machine is vista.

    I am also at the furthest point on my loop, you may want to check a few things first.

    (1) Your filter is on the phone and NOT on your DSL modem.

    (2) Check your phone line for noise, pick up the phone, dial 1 and listen for crackles and weird noises, report to phone company if so.

    (3) Plug your modem direct into the box on the outside of the house, check your results.

    (4) Check for Virus and spyware on your computer.

    (5) The last thing, check your line loop length, your DSL/PHONE company should be able to inform you by doing a line test on their end.

    Also, who is the DSL company, do you know your loop length? how many phones plugged into your phone line? you should have no more then REN (Ringing Equivalence Number) of 4, 4 phones with a REN of 1, 3 phones and an answer phone could = 4, noise from lighting, motors, microwaves and so on could affect your signal.

    If they are stating you should get 1Mbit, then call them and have someone come out and do more tests, if they say you should get it, then by all accounts you should be able to.

    Good luck, keep us informed.

  3. The only problem with storing DNS entries is....

    The DNS entry could become stale (out of date), then the DNS entry is no longer valid, this does not happen to much with static IP websites but in some instances it can be a pain in the butt.

    I am caching DNS entries collected by my Windows 2003 Server just to speed up my lookup times, I also have a bunch of entries in the DNS for other devices and computers on my home network, from time to time the cached entries will not work and I have to purge the cached items manually, Windows is clearing the cache or should I say it will purge anything over 24 hours old and renew the entries.

    Not sure of your reasons as we all have our own reasons to do things, but you should leave Windows to do its own work.

    Damn, I want some of that!  :smitten:

  5. I bet your glad.  :grin2:

    Unbelievable, took them no time to disconnect and 20 days to reconnect! I just don't understand the workings of Verizon and by the sounds of it, neither does Verizon.

    I am happy it is back on, they gave me 2 months free service but my head, ears and throat still hurt. lol

  6. You started the jinx sparky.  :lol:  But seriously, so what happened?

    Verizon is what happened, for some reason the shut it off, they told me is was a mess up on there end, the only way to get it back on is to cancel my service, of which I still do not have and re-order the service again.

    I have called everyday since Monday, talked with everyone that works there and it is my conclusion that they are a bunch of complete fucking idiots!

    I am bouncing off walls right now.
