Hi there

Yesterday evening (13-12-2005) I tried to connect to Saix on the dot of 19:00 (for the infinitcall session).

However, I received an "This username or password is invalid for the domain" error. I tried a second time, and received the same message. Third time I was lucky, and was able to log on and surf. I also made sure username and password was correct.

I know the account is working since I logged on that same morning (the morning of the 12th) with the same username and account. (This is usually an indication that your username and/or password is incorrect, or that somebody else was using that account, OR that Saix have problems with authentication.

And I'm the only one with the username/password combination... unless somebody else was also dialled in with the same username/password.

If this is the case that somebody was using MY account without my permission, then I see it as theft. If it is a case of problematic authentication, then I'm not worrying since I'll be dropping Saix at the drop of a hat as soon as the SNO is operational. I don't trust the system as there are several people complaining that their ADSL caps have been stolen.

Anybody also getting weird problems as well with analogue dial-up accounts?

lets not forget that everytime it doesnt authenticate, they charge you for the call. basically you're getting charged for their f'ups
 
Yup... problems with connecting. And not just Saix, now it's Mweb as well... *sigh* What a wonderful Christmas prezzie from Teklom... I'm using different analog modems.

Next week I'll write it down what happened with which modem on what day...

And Teklom's given me another wonderful Christmas prezzie as well... this morning my ISDN line was working, then some technicians came to work in our area... and yup, ISDN is now dead, they swapped my line with somebody else's cr## line... grrrrrrrrrr
