Thumbs down

It's been difficult to get connections to freeserve unlimited for a month or so. Checkout the freeserve.discuss newsgroup for the gory details. BTW, if you are on unlimited, do not connect for too long - you might get your account closed down if you do...

I too am having problems connecting to off-peak freeserve time between 18:00 and 20:00 in the week.
No problems after that or at weekends.

I assume that the people with problems are all modem users. Myself and all the people I know who use ISDN have no problems. Cos we have a number of PC's all sharing the same connection it means we are online from 7am to 1am most days - things are just peachy.

I guess when you consider the amount of people on isdn compared to modems there's bound to be a difference.

Can't help you with Freeserve poblems but the board seems slooooow tonight.
Workmate is with Freeserve and he's always complaining about it being busy.
Have a second line and free NTL connection myself so I leave it on Autoconnect 24 hours a day.

Cheers
