Sympatico outages ?

When Sympatico works, it works really well. When it doesn't, well, do your own 
tech support.

I particularly dislike their 310-SURF. I am going through a multiport router 
(which is really a 1-port router with 8 switches), and if I have trouble with 
the connection, they tell me to disconnect my router and install their damned 
software with the modem connected to one of my computers. I say that is not 
helpful on several levels, not least of which I have three networked computers. 
How can they access the printer on my machine if I disconnect it from the 
router?

After a few more minutes of talking and after my stubborn refusal to have to 
mutilate my network to get Sympatico to work, we hang up with them being of 
utterly no help whatsoever.
