I'm using a different modem and it likes Centel's modem bank.

Now to figure out why the bank doesn't take a USR Sportster modem . . . when everyone else does.

I'm going to file a formal complaint with the PSC and the AG about this -- maybe they can change the corporate policy to keep the brains working after they hear the word "LINUX".

Maybe a call-in or write-in campaign would be handy?

I have many older computers here gathering dust. perhaps I could fit one up

with a modem etc and win98. To place at your house for the proving the 
<br>
problem source. After all, it is a direct application of THEIR methodology. 
<br>
Then if by some absurd Rube Goldberg scheme they *CAN*probe for Win or Lin 
<br>
on pre-connect at least you could use the winbox as a gateway .
<br>

While Slashdotting good ol GTE AFTER assembling proof if they were that 
<br>
evil/stupid.
<br>
<br>
<br>
Or of course one could Slashdot GTE right now as an example of their being 
<br>
FUDmeisters
