Believe it or not, there are other ways of getting data outside (and
into) our country. I'm sitting on an 11Mbps Internode Wireless
connection, and haven't noticed the problems with the link that I did
during our stint with CCA.

The underlying point of that little rant is the fact that if your ISP
has a vauge idea of what they're doing, things should be working as per
usual.
