We have been having major problems with our ISP, which is RCN.
Just listened to my roomate be told by them that we have a virus and that's why our net connection is going down twenty times a day, and it couldn't possibly be a problem on their end. "There is no virus! I'm running Linux! I'm a trained professional!" says he. But they insist, it can't be that we need a new modem or that there's a network problem.
So. Does anybody have ComCast and want to tell me about it? Right now we have a package through RCN - local phone, cable tv, and cablemodem for around $100 a month. We'd want to switch to something comparable, if we can improve our reliability.
