Re: Fix Central

Jeff,
You are not alone! Years ago I worked at a bank that had the same
issue. Leased line, call AT&T, wait for it, poof! fixed. I always
thought that just by touching the line they fixed it. Like
there was some sort of static they finally grounded.

it but won't acknowledge there was an issue.

Years ago, before the internet was what it is today, we had a leased line
from our main warehouse to our meat plant 7 blocks down the street. When
that leased line (speed 9600!) would go down, which was seldom, I would
call GTE and report it. Later, I would get a phone call that they
couldn't
find anything wrong. But, lo and behold, after that it would work again.
Every. Single. Time. Not exaggerating.
