  • Dial Up

    Welp, My MajicJack just shit the bed. I unplugged it, it was so hot, I couldn't even get the cat5 or telephone wire out of the jack. So, Dialup is DEAD over here.

    I think I only got like 16 calls the WHOLE year, so it was worth keeping anyways. I guess I'll invest my money into paying for some more years on rgbbs.info. :)



    Thanks, and we're still here as telnet. :)

    ... I wish my brain had expansion slots.

    You used to be able to packet capture the login info that the MagicJack uses and put that into your own ATA or Asterisk or whatever. Is it 100% dead?

    Yeah, it burned the cat5 and the telephone cables ends into itself ... so, yeah, it's dead.
