It's 1115 in the evening. Just tried to run some N4 races. No way... Latencies are running anywhere from 350ms to 1.5 seconds. This is no way to run a railroad. -Larry

Crap. Wrong newsgroup. This was supposed to go to the comments section on our cox RoadRunner newsgroup, where a many-months long discussion of the networks horrible performance has been going on. Sorry :) -Larry "Larry" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:nZxx6.237246$[email hidden]...

**** Post for FREE via your newsreader at post.usenet.com **** It's not the connection. It's the network. It's a known issue, and promises of a fix have come and gone a few times. -Larry "Regular Racer" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:3vIx6.1249$[email hidden]...

No shit :) That's what we have been telling the Cable Company for 6 months :) Actually, it's not the connection. It's their server configuration and router problems. Believe it or not, sometimes it's in excess of 15 hops BEFORE our data ever see's the net! -Larry "Regular Racer" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:3vIx6.1249$[email hidden]...

Maybe you should take a lesson from this woman: http://www.nationalpost.com/scripts/printer/printer.asp?f=/stories/20010621/597288.html She had all sorts of problems with her cable internet & inept tech support meant she was down most of the time. So she has now sued: $500 for breach of contract, $300 for her inconvenience, & $5,000 punitive damages. Good for her! Did I mention she's also a judge? :-)) -- Fester
