HAS ANYONE ELSE GOT THIS PROBLEM?? PEOPLE CALL ME, ALL THEY GET IS THE RINGING. I HAVE CALL FORWARDING. THE COMPUTER WILL NOT KICK OUT ON INCOMING PHONE CALLS. YES I DO HAVE IT SET ON *70. STILL NOTHING.
TIMES ARE TOUGH AS IT IS. I NEED CUSTOMERS WHO ARE NON COMPUTER. THIS HAS BEEN GOING ON FOR OVER A YEAR. THEY HAVE GIVEN ME EVERY FIX IN THE BOOK. THE LAST FIX LOCKED UP MY COMPUTER. AAAAAAAND THE VERY LAST FIX SOLUTION WAS THIS MORNING IN A REPLY FROM AN E MAIL I SENT THEM. FOR ONLY $5.95 PER MONTH I COULD HAVE AN OUTSIDE VENDOR MAKE IT WORK!!!!!!!! UNBELIEVABLE.
EARTHLINK DOES NOT HAVE A CHAT BOARD DO THEY? I THINK NOT I LOOKED. THEY DON'T WANT THEIR CUSTOMERS TALKING ABOUT THEIR CRUMMY SERVICE. PLEASE! IF ANYONE OUT THERE CAN HELP, I REALLY APPRECIATE IT. THANKS JACK.
BOY, AM I HAPPY THE MOD SQUAD IS GONE. ALL CAPS! HAHAHHAHA. IT IS JUST REAL EASY TO TYPE THIS WAY. NOPE, I AM NOT YELLIN' IF I WAS YOU WOULD KNOW IT. this is yelling,,hahahhaha. THANK YOU. JACK.

You are an idiot with no respect for anyone on this message board. I thought, before, that you actually needed help with your posts. I'm realizing, now, that you are just typing with one hand.
Lack of moderation works both ways.

Uhhh - HELLoooooo!
*70 BLOCKS call waiting so it WILL NOT "kick out" on an incoming call. Just take the *70 prefix off and you should get kicked off with each incoming call.

I THANK YOU VERY MUCH FOR YOUR SINCERE RESPONSE. I HAVE TRIED BOTH WAYS. *70 OFF AND ON. I SWEAR TWO YEARS AGO I HAD *70 ON AND IT KICKED OUT. (FOR THE FIRST THREE MONTHS) HOWEVER, E LINK JUST SENT ME A LONG E MAIL STORY ABOUT HOW I COULD HAVE AN OUT SIDE VENDOR MAKE IT WORK FOR A MERE $5.95 PER MONTH. THAT WOULD BE ON TOP OF THE $22.00 A MONTH ALREADY. THEN I CALLED THEM,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,ZZZZZZZ. FINALLY I GOT SOMEONE. HE ADMITTED,,,PROBLEMS. FIRST TECH TO EVER DO THAT! THEY ALL HAVE THE RIGHT ANSWER,,,,,,DO .......HANG UP AND.......YOU ARE RIGHT BACK WHERE YOU WERE OR WORSE!!!!
OH!!! AND THIS LAST TECH BLAMED IT ON THE MODEM.56K.

and download the “lite” version of Earthlink 5.06. It has a connection wizard that will guide you through setup. It will also give you a bit faster connection than just using Dial-up Networking. There is also a good tutorial on this same linked page.
Be sure that you DO NOT put a *70 in your dialing sequence and you should be OK. Let us know AFTER you have tried this.
