Not Always the Company's fault.
Some people have spyware on their PC and refuse to acknowledge it. Viruses and spyware can use up resources on the network, and yes one PC commected to the modem is a network on the internet. Try disconnecting the PC from the network and if your phone call is clear, then it yopur fault. Other people get a wireless router and plugg it in with out securing it. Treaying it like an appliance. It is not your toaster oven, refrigerator, nor microwave. It is computer equipment. All computer equipment requires YOU to LERAN about it maintain it and manage it. If YOU choose NOT to do any of those it is your fault. IF 30 people are using your wireless router for internet you did not do the right thing. Too mant people buy these things and do not even learn what they actually do, Do you buy a car without looking at it's options? Do you sign legal documents without reading them? apparently many do. The number xfer process is called LNP, Local Number Portability, or transferring your number. As I have done this before the LOA, Letter of Authorization does ask if you have DSL service and if so you can not xfer thre number because it will disconnect the internet service. When the LOA returns with and error that you can not xfer the number because of DSL, many people go back and answer no to that question. WHY would YOU do such a stupid thing. You have been told NO and you chose to do it any. Is not that the behavior of a child not an adult. READ the pages when you sign up! Sign up yourself and not let the CC agent do it for you, it is the same process and you won't mis-spell anything. To be an adult is to be responsible.
