I have lost LW with Los Angeles Verizon and my girl has lost it in NEwport Beach with SBC Global. Both are recent. What the devil is goingon....and why? Please, lets try and work on a universal fix.

If it's Verizon then they're selectively shaping certain areas. I have Verizon(PA) and have no problems connecting. When I do have problems, it's related to my router. Which occasionally has to be reconfigured(it's a bit of a lemon).

Default one computer at a time...:(

After a serious "dump" from simply letting my laptop go into sleep mode one night, Dell Computer techs (God bless'em) reconfigured my computer and, as if by magic, LW was back. I write this to let all know that the local blocking can be fixed. I do not know what method they (or who) is using to block LW access, but it does seem to be something inserted into individual computers (virus type), rather than an an unscaleable wall from without. Just one man's opinion, but the wall can be broken one computer at a time.

Default time warner/road runner

National Techinal Support: Limewire is a psp file sharing application and we no longer allow them on our network, we block them for spyware reasons and because of illegal copyright infrigement.
Me: What do you suggest I do then?
Techinal Support: We can't provide you with that information ma'am we don't recommend any file sharing because it's "illegal" and a secuirty risk. You have a nice eveing.... (hung up)

Me: Funny how porn of every shape and description is all over roadrunner and how yahoo spyware detects at least 30 adware hits durning 24 hours but you as a corporation go through such great lenghts to ensure the security of your network

Any ideas for a dsl/or cable provider for high speed in NC other than time warner or statlitte. What ticks me off is they know they own the market here and can get away with this.
