    Curious as to what changed....

    Sounds like flash.net has done some upgrading. The way the SMTP works is that it's setup on a range of IPs which would be their ISP addresses. If it doesn't not recognize the IP it will reject the info. In your case you're trying to send mail through flash.net with a Direcway IP address. Flash.net doesn't recognize the address thinking it might be a spammer or something and rejects the request.

    I had the same problem when I was with Direcway and trying to use another providers e-mail. Sounds like you got it figured out  :D

    DSL Speed

    It's actually 1.0 meg...it is odd they don't have 1.5 meg but I think I've figured it out. I got the DSL through the phone company, and the phone company in turn is getting the access from a local ISP called Backroads which has it's own DSL with the 1.5 meg service so the phone company has to take the back seat so to speak. I would go with the 1.5 meg but it's $30 more a month through Backroads ISP. 500k is not worth 30 more to me.

    Wasn't running anything else accessing the internet on those tests.....

    Any suggestions to pep it up? I've done all the tweaks that I know of.

    Not too bad for 1 meg down 512k up service and 2 miles from the switch

    I went to cancel my Dway service and..........

    I used to have Charter cable Slower, and it was a train wreck when it first came available where I used to live. Numerous outages and below normal speeds. Started with the 512k/128 I believe was the speed....never even got close for a while. Then the 1 meg came along and things smoothed out. Once they upped it to 3 meg everything was golden...had little to no outages for the couple years before I moved. I will have to say that the DSL I'm on now is a lot snappier. I have a slower D/L speed but twice the upload. Webpages load faster then they did with Charter. Guess the shorter latency.....

    KBert, I hadn't thought of that with the credit card. Wonder what the time frame is on disputing a service.....only got charged once for Dway. Not really a big deal....it did work, just not like I needed it to.

    Hello all, I just canceled my Direcway service today. Fortunately I didn't have too many problems. They did keep asking why though. Instead of getting into all the problems that Direcway has I told them I had a new provider for the same money at a higher speed. She said ok and asked if I wanted to leeave the account on standby just in case I needed it again......had to think a while on that one.... :haha: NO. I now have 1MB/512K DSL and everything is great. Speeds are pretty much constant. I'm right at 2 miles from the switch.

    I hope DSL and Cable providers will someday have their service available in all areas and put Direcway under.

    Good Luck to all!
