Has this been fixed yet
( i don't use mchsi.com much cause i can not download and upload mail
from outside there network )
If they been reported as a spam  alot more then just mediacom will not
except there mail.

Are they going to keep there DSL customers or they dumping you all to
SBC (IL)  and Quest (iowa) ?
( thats what i got from there public info there just a wimax company
kinda sad have anyone checked out there prices whos gona
buy 1.5mbps for $60 + installation qconline will be offering theres cheaper)

I thought that WiMax was going to be fast or as fast as Cable/Dsl
