DSL Dead – Weather kills phone line
Nov 24th
Just a quick note to say that the DSL at home is dead. Well, actually the whole phone line is dead. Nothing but crackling static on the line when you pick up the phone, and the DSL can’t get a line sync for more than a few seconds at a time, if it gets it…
