Re: [PLUG] Veriizon ADSL

["William G. Zappasodi" <bz@CrestecDigital.com>]

I've had Verison DSL for about 5 months now. I use PPOE in a SlackWare 7.1
box which is the router firewall. My Lan and everything works great. I've
never had a problem with Verizon. Sometimes they go down at 5 am for
maintenance, but never for the whole day.
