Kevin Posted June 20, 2002 Share Posted June 20, 2002 Damn, must be a national thing. I've experienced some issues too, and I'm in New York. It either times out or the connection gets very slow. After about 5 minutes though, it goes back to normal. Must be the way you hit it I guess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
