I fine that rather insulting. We survive though nothing but donations, and unlike a lot of dyndns providers we have a policy of being up front about outages. Are uptime over the last year is about 99.3%. We provide support with 24 hours of any query, I would like to see your ISP do that. In addition, I think it is rather rude of you to take are honesty about problems we have had, and insinuate that we are incompetent. In fact, DynDNS is a rather slick little system, and you'll be hard pressed to find other DynDNS service with the kind of uptime that we have. IN fact, we have the reputation of being dependable. We've had people tell us stories about checking every other thing in there set up, cause they could not concieve of us being offline.
.5e empty lives in our (DynDNS.org's) datacenter. Time to see if our bandwidth is worth all those big bucks. Now if you will excuse me, I have MRTG to stare at.;)
Now I'm not going to step out on a limb and say that my experence is the rule with Qwest, but doesn't everybody that's had anything to do with them have a horror story. I went to a smell tech school (10 points if you can figure out which;-) ), and that school was a circuit customer of Qwest.
It was horrible. The router at the other end of the T-1's died, several times a week. They didn't recognize the school's circuit ID number. we had routing issues, links to other backbones died randomly, but wait! As long as you were inside Qwest's network, it was very very fast.... so I guess it will fix all of Qwest's problems to make that network faster yet.

About 130 people have clicked on that link. I seriously doubt that it's making much of a difference.
