I'm at Camp Creek Lake.
I just switched to Embarq a month ago, and it has worked great up until a few days ago. I thought it was just my own supremely bad high-speed internet luck, so in a way I'm glad to hear that it's not just me... though I'm sorry to hear others are having frustrations with it too.
Looking on the bright side, yesterday I wrote a long, reasonable and thoughtful response to one of the threads in the political forum. I hit "submit" only to discover I was no longer online, and my response disappeared into the ethers... I took it as a sign that it probably wasn't as reasonable or as thoughtful as I thought (though definitely long) and didn't need to posted.

Repeat after me:

As you know we have the radiothon tomorrow and the worldwide stream is dependent on our DSL lines. I have been going around for 4 days with Centurylink and finally got them to admit they have a problem...as far as Inlet Beach, as well. So, at least Seaside to the county line.
Heheheh, thanks... I've learned my lesson.
Who is centrutylink?
They are the new Embarq partner/parent company.
After 4 days of having me relentlessly pursue them, Centurylink finally admitted to having, and found a problem in Ft. Walton Beach that feeds most of Okaloosa county and all of South Walton county. My audio stream is up at the radio station. Everyone pray it stays that way!
