Just thought, and I'm not trying to put down your hard work. But what's
the point? (it's a genuine Q.)

I know that some of the PlusNet gateways have issues, and I know how to
find out what one I'm on anyway. My feeling is that if anyone actually
knows about gateways, and that some have problems, they may already know
how to find out.

Knowing what gateway you're on isn't much use, unless you know if it's a
bad one, and what to do about it, and whether you got a good one. I had
one last year (only a slight slowdown though), and no amount of router
rebooting got me a good one. After a few days, it all worked OK again.

Just my 2�.

Cheers.

Mostly it was just a shits-and-giggles thing, but also because of this:

[goes to http://usertools.plus.net/@gateway]
Which gateway
You are currently connected to the "unknown" gateway.


Heh.

I got 'Telehouse North, Juniper 6'

I was just curiosu as to why you'd go to all that bother, but a bit of
fun isn't an issue :-)
