However,if the service sucks... Anyway, as of now, it's finally working again and I can actually send emails for the first time in months. Let's see how long it stays like that. As it was I was using a combination of ISPs for everything. Xter.net and Netsys for sending and receiving emails, ArmenTel for browsing the web. The entire Internet situation in Armenia sucks, in fact.

I remember my brother using some other dial-up ISP. If there is one, vote with your wallet and ditch ArmenTel. Aren’t there any other ISP-s? I remember my brother using some other dial-up ISP.

No text even. The command consol just hangs and quits after 20 or so seconds. My site is hosted on an American server through Netsys and I can't access their site -- http://www.netsys.am -- either. The marvellous (NOT) ArmenTel strikes again -- and they clearly don't give a damn. Is there no end to this monster effectively created by Ter Petrosian and Kocharian in 1997-8?
