Lift Off!

DSL is here! Ralph Doncaster from istop.com and Doncaster Consulting came by last night to wire an RJ-11 cable off of the jack that Bell left. After doing that, and wiring me into the DSLAM, the modem finally sync'd.

Only trouble is, the Alcatel SpeedTouch Home modems don't seem to play perfectly with istop's DSLAM, and so my sync levels had to be locked in at 3Mbit for the time being, until istop installs their new DSLAM in a couple of weeks.

Getting close to 300kB/s inbound, and 85kB/s outbound, plus, reverse DNS records have been updated, and should propagate within the next few hours.
