I've had basically zero downtime on my DSL line. Any outages I've had have either been scheduled for upgrades, a couple of times router failures (one of which took out my city, because the router that failed was in the covad facility), and the occasional router programming glitch. And none of that you can blame on the DSL line, because router stuff can happen on ANY network. But overall, I had MUCH higher levels of outages on my old 56K leased line than I ever had on my DSL line. > The thing to worry here about is "Does the admin know I'm running this list". > Most providers throw a big ol hissy fit if they see you running servers on > their networks. See my other note on this. That's why they have business lines. If you're plaing the "go cheap and hope they don't find out" game, that's not the ISP's fault. -- Chuq Von Rospach, Architech [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- http://www.chuqui.com/ The Cliff's Notes Cliff's Notes on Hamlet: And they all died happily ever after ------------------------------------------------------ Mailman-Users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/mailman-users Mailman FAQ: http://www.python.org/cgi-bin/faqw-mm.py Searchable Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/mailman-users%40python.org/
