I am with Telstra and did not had any problem... besides my extremely slow dial up connection of 21.6 all year around. Are you on dial up or broadband?

Would I? Naw..As much as I love being online and as much as I AM online everyday throughout the day, if I were to be without internet for an extended period (and I have) I'd be fine..I do tons of other things as well so it'd be no biggie for me if it were for just a couple days or a week or so ya know.

No. I'm just really not into too much browsing and chatting online. Not so fund of going online to the internet. I do a lot of things at home. Internet is just for a spare time and hobby maybe. If I'm not in the mood to go online I try to find things that I can do at home and there are lots of them if you'll really just look into it. If I can't find anything, I asks my mom, she's got a lot of them! (lol)

I have experienced that one, but i guess mine is worst because it happened 3 days no electricity in the whole city after the typhoon. I went crazy really, i always think about my internet. i wanted to chat with friends and visit the websites i love most. So i praised God (as i do always) when the electricity went back..
