============================================================
Sometimes i realy donīt know why i write Mails to a ML ! :-(
If you read my mails you can see that everything works fine !
You have the full IP-Range + 1 Fix IP-Adress
============================================================
If you donīt beleve me - you can login via SSH into my Network
via SAT .....

And - yes - if a Port (like Morpheus) is blocked you use a small
and cheap tool like HTTPTUNNEL and you can DL your XXX Video (if you 
need it) with up to 70KB/s  with Morpheus...

Limited ???? - What is limited on this SERVICE ???? - yes you canīt play
ONline-Games - ha ha ha ha.....

Ok - other Calculation:

I have payed 120Euro for my ISDN-Flatrate (bevor sie pleite gegangen ist) for ISDN
with only 6KB/s.....

Now i pay 95EURO per Month + 34Euro Montly Rate for the HARDWARE


This is not cheap - but ok for me....
