Pagging Lozzo

300 years old, eh?

So, where was it made? And by what process?

I reckon it a *lot* older than that, and has therefore probably been
through quite a lot more, too.

 

The frogs sell it though?

Bottle it and sell it? Oh, hang on Coke tried that didn't they?

 

You mean they didn't even know how to raise a fault with BT, who
provision the service? Staggered!

 

Funny really, 'cos it's well known that France Telecom Engineers put
other ADSL providers on a low priority list when fixing ADSL stuff and
Wanadoo users always comes first.

 

And who owns Wanadoo?

Is that a rhetorical question?

 

Well, if you'd not treated it as such it might have been. I've a
feeling that it's owned by France Telecom, and was hoping you'd either
confirm or refute it.

It is (and still is, IIRC) part of the France Telecom group along with
Orange.

 

All soon to be renamed Orange, iirc.

 

Wouldn't surprise me, as my mobile provider used to be called
"Itineris" before being renamed "Orange".

 

Whistles nonchalantly......

'Hog

I haven't got a clue but it must take some time to filter through all
that clay and come out as the Thames.

In the clouds.

Osmosis.

 

You should be fairly safe if you have followed SOP to eliminate the
possibility of the problem being at the user's end. You *did* follow
SOP before bothering those nice people at Wannadoo, didn't you?

 

Ahh, that'd be from Farmoor Reservoir.

Your quite safe, my lad is doing his mechanical apprenticeship there.

On second thoughts.....

Eww

And the source of the water that collects in the water-table that
feeds the source of the Thames. Where might that come from?

 

Fucked if I know.

The source of the Isis is in Gloucestershire.

It doesn't become the Thames til Oxfordshire, whatever the sign under
the tree might say.

 

Only, you talked about checking the settings but nothing about
unplugging everything else from the telephone line, including *all*
phone*, extensions, Sky box, Playstation, security alarm etc and then
plugging the ADSL connection directly into the BT master socket
(behind the face plate), with no filters. Nor of trying a different
USB modem and/or preferably router nor of trying the existing kit on
another ADSL enabled line .... or stuff like that.

OK clever clogs, where is water made then if not in the clouds? It has
to be made somewhere to replace all the stuff that falls off the edge.
