  1. No problem, the mail came thru and the bills always get here.

    Now I just need the money to pay them. No you can’t blame the problem on Dom again.

  2. FiOS, bitches!

  3. Stop playing the martyr Dom.

  4. I guess that screwed up anyone’s work from home day.

  5. Village Hall, including police & fire departments, was without Internet access also. Northwest Bergen Central Dispatch was also impacted.

    Shocking that these critical services don’t have Internet access via multiple providers, ins’t it?

  6. I brought the hotspot to work and saved myself a $25 Starbux tab!!

  7. That was the first time that I ever lost all 3 with Cablevision.
    They have been very reliable, and I can always get a human on the line.
    Last week my dad lost FIOS for most of the day, and I never saw that reported.
    I did take the opportunity to get my IPAD a sim card at ATT so for 30 (plus taxes=$36, no contract, no activation fee since its my device) I now have a backup for work 3GB per month. theres also a smaller plan for 15.
    My Verizon iphone got me thru the outage but the ATT service on the IPAD works better in the areas I work in.
