increase of vexation

The DSL is back, but it's horribly slow. I'm talking modem speeds here, kids.

Snarl.

But you're moving, so you'll soon be leaving that phone line behind, and all your troubles will be over.

...sorry, was that laying it on too thick?

Is this Verizon DSL?

It looks like it might be a wide-area thing ... here at home (in Jersey City) we're seeing 1500 ms ping times to the local nameserver.

Yeah. And it seemed likely it's an area thing, as it's the hop from our bridge to the Verizon gateway that appears to be lost in a time warp, but I note their "DSL Network Status" page doesn't say a thing about it.

Bastards.

It's not our line! It's their network. Moving five blocks will NOT help.
