Some FTP sites will not let you connect, some web sites won't let you into
"secure" information.. For some reason they use the DNS name as proof of
your location.

UGH, Dunbarton has the WORST phone company.. the only place I know of that
makes a call to the next town (Goffstown, also where the kids go to school)
is long distance. They also put the phone lines in such a place on the poll
that Dunbarton can't get cable. If the cable lines go above the phone lines
they are to close to the power lines, if they put the cable lines below the
phone lines then they are to low on the polls (trucks could hit them).
I've VERY suprised you can even get DSL in Dunbarton
