Most of my connectivity issues from home are due to a loss of connectivity between my access provider and other supposedly well connected hosts located within New Zealand. One can speculate as the the cause of this, but I think there is a very real lack of care taken when making network changes at times, a general lack of interest in ensuring that domestic connectivity stays alive and well, combined with the usual arrogance of the larger players that see themselves as "the internet" rather than a player in a co-operative network. regards Peter Mott -/-
