I have contacted the phone company again. This time I learned that they will not schedule a diagnostic visit until the first or second week of next month. As a result, I may be offline for a few weeks. Will return as soon as possible.[/b][/color] ----------------------------------- Tormie Friday, 30 December 2005, 07:56 PM ----------------------------------- Thank you Unicornst :) Damnit... :doh: :crying: :crying: :sad: How can be the new year party without pangor :sad: ? ----------------------------------- tda42 Friday, 30 December 2005, 08:13 PM ----------------------------------- [quote="Tormentor";p="27725"]Thank you Unicornst :) Damnit... :doh: :crying: :crying: :sad: How can be the new year party without pangor :sad: ?[/quote] Put up a fake avatar and place it in the corner of Posetteforever with a sign around his neck.

Tormie, come out from behind that sofa, I am back. Thank you, Uni. Please take care of yourself and get rid of the cold bug. Yesterday, the line conditions kept getting worse and worse. The last phone call I made to the phone company was so drowned out by static noise that I could hear very little of what the woman from the phone company was saying. No one came by for this yet, it is still set for some time next year. (Next year? WOW, that sounds far away!) When noise level got a little better, I could not connect to websites long enough for a full page to be rendered. I was hoping to be able to send one email before the conditions got worse again. I was right. Sending that one email took about an hour, with many modem retrainings taking place, after that the noise level increased again and retraining failed. After that the inital modem handshaking failed repeatedly. I checked to phone line a little while ago by listening to the dial tone. It was almost, but not quite, noise free. I modifed my modem settings so that I can listed to the connection conditions. Since my current connection began, I have heard only four retrainings taking place, and have been able to upload a picture. So the problem may have gone away on its own, meaning that it may return. But I think it is more likely that one or more of neighborhood companies were also being afflicted by the problem. While I and my family are not important enough for a priority repair, those firms are, so their repair fixed my problem too. But checking with the phone company by their automated phone system (push 1 for this 2 for that) They still consider my situation is unresolved.

Hey, now I can'd do that garage sale with pangor's things :mmmh: ... :lol: I don't know how work the telephone lines there, hearing the noise on the lines means that it's an analogic kind of transmission, the advantage of an analogic transmission is that you can hear something even if the conditions are not perfect like in your situation, for the digital lines it works or not at all. Here I think that the phone company is using a sort fo digital transmission on "analogic" cable like the ADSL does also for normal conversation because if (when...) some problem appears it cut out all and no way to call or receive a call... ----------------------------------- TdaC Saturday, 31 December 2005, 02:04 PM ----------------------------------- Great to see you Pangor - we might have had to cancel new years if you hadn't shown up. :lol: :thumb: ----------------------------------- Visitor Saturday, 31 December 2005, 06:13 PM ----------------------------------- The phone system here is a combination of the older analog system and the newer digital additions. Most of the phone comany to phone company connections are digital by wires, fiber optics, microwave links etc. From their facilities to the customer is analog unless the customer pays extra to convert and maintian their connection to one of the several digital connections methods vailable. Perhaps I was too happy too soon. Yesterday was rainy and the connection was working. Today started out part sunny and the connection was imposible, now it is storming and the connection is borderline working. The storm is beginning to clear, and the connection is already beginning to die again.
