    WebAfrica Customer Zone Port Reset

    Maybe someone can explain this to me please? Why does your ADSL line need to be, in WebAfrica's terms, "in great shape" for me to be able to reset the port from the customer zone. Doesn't that defy the whole point of being able to reset the port when the line is not working correctly or as...
