I received the following this morning from IBB

NavDiag showing connection to local bts(150) at present. However, unable to go any further! Defaulted to dialup. Is the IBB backbone network undergoing (upgrade) work?

Backbone?? backbone?? I don't think they have a backbone but they do have a hard neck charging us for their bad service!
