I need to vent

begin rant

Currently I am using dialup. Have been since Sunday. My DSL has been out that long. I finnaly got around to calling them, because no one in the house knows a computer from a VCR, I have to call and deal with the dreaded tech support people. I'm sorry if I'm about to offend any tech support people out there. We have Bellsouth DSL. Bellsouth is one of the "Baby Bells" from when AT&T split. Bellsouth is a good company with bad tech support. They talk to me, a computer genius(ok a little over the top) like I'm a moron. I know from experience that the problem lies not with in my home but somewhere outside along the line. I waited 40 mins for them to tell me that it was a problem with their network. I wanted to reach throught the phone and slap the lady all the way of there in India(another rant all together). The woman tried to tell me my computer which until Sunday had connected to the internet just fine was not compatable with PPPOE connects. She asked what brand it was and I said it was a custom build. She says there's your problem in a not so nice manner. I reminder her that it worked until Sunday and she decided to check with a line tech. She came back a few minutes later and said the problem was with their network and they would send a tech out to to fix it. She came back to tell me when they would come. She tells me the problem is bigger than they thought and tech would not be out until the 26th. THE 26TH!!!!! OMFG. That is 5 days away. I could walk my posts to the ENWorld servers in that amount of time.

We also have another problem. In the hottest part of the day the sun shine directly on the box that connects our house to the DSL. On days it is FREACKING HOT(which is almost everyday in the summer.) the DSL goes out from about 2:30 to 4:30. I mention this to her hoping to get the problem solved. She says "hopefully this will fix that problem also". I want to scream HOW WILL THAT FIX THIS PROBLEM, IT IS TWO DIFFERENT ISSUES.

I have no more engery. They have sucked the life and possible the will to live right out of me. I hope this did not bore any of you.
end rant
