Well, I guess .........


you could go out and sabotage your own cable pair, but the problem there is that, aerial or buried, it would be pretty difficult to get to. The only thing you have ready access to is the "Drop" cable to your house. The actual cable that feeds from the C.O. is in a sheath up in the air or buried in the ground. Besides, the odds are that a different pair in the same count could be just as bad. Such is life. The Telco is not selling you an Internet connection. They're selling you a TELEPHONE line. The growth of the Internet and dialup connections was nothing but a negative for Telcos. Prior to the Internet, the average telephone call lasted less than five minutes. The system wasn't designed for calls that would go on for hours at a flat rate.
