If You Have Frontier Internet

A long long time ago like in the 90's and early 2000's when the internet was actually fun and simple.

Now it's all about selling a third-world country service at first-world pricing.

Fraud and cheating

Before upgrading to faster speed, it worked great. Only an occasional problem.   Now it's fucking hell with constant DNS issues that NO ONE can fix, but yes, they do want to sell you something else. There is no such thing as "the spirit of excellence" anymore.  That has long left the building long before Elvis did.

DNS HELL:

And the problem is not that particular website, it just happened to be the one I was on when I did the screen captures and copied the text.   It happens on ALL sites.


I'd like to move to a state where I can get a decent internet provider, without all this bullshit, so I can actually get some online work done in a timely manner.
