vga256<p>i just ftp'd into a public ftp server running in Ecuador, and discovered an absolutely critical piece of US Robotics ISP modem pool software that has been missing for 20 years </p><p>thank you from the bottom of my heart, rolando felix of Educational Unit 10 De Agosto, for leaving your departmental computer ftp wide open ❤️ you just preserved some insanely useful and important dial-up ISP history. (don't worry rolando - i didn't peek too deeply into your ms-dos games and music folders)</p><p>the story:<br>in the mid-90s i was a teenager who had a summer job at a dial-up isp. we had 32 incoming lines which were handled by 32 external USR Courier modems, which were fed into a super chonky Livingston Portmaster terminal server. all of the support hardware took up an entire rack - just to let 32 people call in for internet service at 28.8kbaud. it ate a ton of power, and made a lot of heat.</p><p>then, in 95-96, US Robotics delivered two insane appliances: the Total Control Modem Pool. these were *tiny* devices that offered 16 dial-up modems at 33.6kbaud. if you paid a bit more, you could buy the NetServer version, which gave you a terminal server too. an entire isp in a box the size of a network switch.</p><p>the modems had buggy firmware. so USR offered firmware updates via their ftp site. you could even upgrade some of the modems to "x2" 56k service with a firmware patch. they supported it for years, and when 3com bought USR, they kept the ftp site running for years. and then, 3com shut down their ftp site. and no one thought to mirror it.</p><p>after 3 hours of searching, i was able to track down a single filename thanks to WBM: mpv90an.zip. not a single site on the web had it - not even IA or discmaster. on a hunch, i plugged it into the Napalm FTP Indexer (<a href="https://www.searchftps.net" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="">www.searchftps.net</span><span class="invisible"></span></a>) and... unbelievably, there it was, sitting on an ancient box in someone's university office in Quito, Ecuador.</p><p>the most amazing part was how slow the server was. at 250 ms pings, it was like digging through a public ftp on a 14.4k modem in 1994.</p><p>tomorrow i'll be uploading these files to IA. for now, sleep.</p><p><a href="https://dialup.cafe/tags/digiPres" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>digiPres</span></a> <a href="https://dialup.cafe/tags/softwarePreservation" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>softwarePreservation</span></a> <a href="https://dialup.cafe/tags/ISP" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>ISP</span></a></p>

Dendrobatus Azureus<p>I've stopped working with obsolete xDSL network devices. I have an ISP Fiber who installed Fiber to the CURB and Fiber to the Home simultaneously just to make money. They installed the obsolete fiber to the curb systems to milk people into making them think that xDSL is a way for the future.</p><p>Meanwhile on quite stable 4G Networks they give the speeds that you see in the screenshot.

Droppie [infosec] 🐨:archlinux: :kde: :firefox_nightly: :thunderbird: :vegan:<p>Recent email from my ISP [Aussie BB] advising of yet another price rise imminent, for my shitty <a href="https://infosec.space/tags/FTTN" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>FTTN</span></a> fraudband service. The new price is still affordable, yet i am incensed by it, given my 700m of rotted copper gives me 37/7 on a very good day, but more typically ~32/5. </p><p>So i've decided to challenge it by doing my first bit of active competition-hunting in many years, with a view to actually changing if i find decent looking candidates. I realise i shan't get any better performance til <a href="https://infosec.space/tags/FttP" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>FttP</span></a> becomes available here, but getting a much lower price given the shit speeds is now desirable as a point of stubborn principle. </p><p>Initial look... two well-known comparator sites:</p><ol><li><a href="https://www.finder.com.au/broadband-plans" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="">finder.com.au/broadband-plans</span><span class="invisible"></span></a> ...
