the great techs from at&t came today. the 24-pair termination right in front of the house was blow apart, and the termination pcb was 25% vaporized. i wish i had a picture. the techs fixed that like nothing, and found few other blown connections. my dsl modem had a hole in the pcb. amazing that the thing still booted. thumbs up for caymen. so i had to replace that and fight with the stupid new modem, that's much less impressive.
so score it: 1 termination point, 1 phone jack, 1 dsl modem, one server. so assuming i haven't missed anything, quanstro.net should be back up. please send me email off list if you think that's not the case. - erik
