Not quite the same thing but related... I'm with Gotalk (now Club telco) and my internet drops out anywhere between 1-5 times a day, often only minutes seperate each dropout. Some days I have no issues, but most of the time, I'll get atleast a couple of drop outs a day
And the pricks charge a $50 fee to be a member of their "club". Screw their poxy club.
Atleast downloads run at up to 300kb/s which is important for flight simulator which sure as hell beats the 50kb/s I had with Craptus (which had even worse dropouts).
