[kwlug-disc] Getting external IP & CarryTel

[Ron Singh]

And interestingly, when one looks at the solved outages since June of 2017,
it was mostly Rogers and Bell FTTN, wilth only a solitary Bell DSL being
impacted and for mere 70 minutes. Small sample of outages to be sure, but
sure points to DSL being the most reliable means of transmission?

Thanks,

Ron Singh
