RE: Dial-up Networking Through the ECS Line

[Chris Bipes <chris.bipes@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

This is why when we receive complaints about our on-line transaction
processing system from a customer, We contact their local CO and have their
line(s) tested and repaired.  Some times at our expense.  Suddenly the
customer has no problem with our service or any others.  Thank You phone
companies for giving Us a chance to shine.

Booth,

What a LOT of folks don't realize is that you can be at the mercy of the
Telco's CO and their switches and lines in the area you are calling FROM as
well as the area you are calling TO !
