Hubert,
I wondered where you went off to. I use AT&T Worldnet. I have been frustrated with it at times because they are slow with routing the data to the user. They must have some problems with there system or something. They recently upgraded their equipment and issued new access numbers promising faster service. They have 56K access now. I am now connecting at 28.8K whereas before it was lower. I think there has been some improvement. When SI has been gruesomely slow brad has said ATT is a problem. They have the rep of being slow at times. But in the years I have used them I have almost never gotten a busy signal or not been able to log on. That part is impressive. I have heard that the netscape browser can be a problem, but I'm not sure about it. I sue the netscape browser too. A friend just tried the 100 free hours on aol and immediately had problems logging on. The computer dialed 3-4 times before getting through to their access numbers. But he was on in a few minutes.
