I know exactly where your coming from. I've had Compuserve for a little over a year now, and during the first few months I had the same problems. I was just like you and was going to suck it up and not let them win also. Some of my friends that are a little more computer savy than I convienced me to make several calls to CompServ, and my local phone company. Somewhere down the line it finally got better, but honestly, I can't remember what the problem was. The point being that there may be something that can be done. Don't be afraid to make a stink about it. I now can stay on line for hours at a time and rarely get kicked off. I never bought into that AOL thing either, there's no need. Good luck and I hope this helps.
