I had a lightning strike at my house at 6:10am Friday morning that fried my DSL modem.
The Qwest tech came out today (yes, on Saturday) and tested the line. Then he said “I have some DSL modems in my truck, want one?”
I asked “What’s it going to cost me?”
He said “Nothing, they are just some customer returns that I tested and they work.”
Well I’ll be damned. (Most likely.) A helpful Qwest tech!
So we are back now on a FREE new DSL modem.
