Continuing the saga of my fibre (lit fibre five metres from the house, but #openreach say "Oh no, no fibre and no plans for fibre")...
I've just had an e-mail from Sky saying "Full fibre is now available". Absolutely no intention of going with Sky (and wondering how they got my e-mail address), but interesting...
Quick checks of #idnet and #aaisp shows it's still unavailable. Checking OpenReach also shows unavailable.
WTF?

Had yet another #robocall #scamcall on my #AAISP SIP line this morning. I've fallen down a rabbit hole: how can I block these calls?
The spectrogram is very distinctive. Call pickup is followed by an unnaturally low noise level for a couple of seconds.
Then there's a blip.
Then the noise level absolutely rockets.

@tschaefer @5SpeedFun I can add that #AAISP https://www.aa.net.uk do a /48 per customer by default and you can sub allocate as you need to one or more DSL/FTTP lines in whatever chunks you want, statically, and ask for more if you need. By default a /64 from it is provided by DHCPv6 with PD, but very flexible. And reverse DNS provided as needed.

But then we have been doing #IPv6 for customers for over 20 years.

@AlisonW I was once woken up at 06:30 by Royal Mail delivering a #FireBrick from #AAISP!

@JessTheUnstill @dgar
Either what 3 words, or default #AAISP passwords...

Set my mother up with #AAISP FTTP at her new bungalow and #AAISP VoIP. We couldn’t port her number due to some Virgin Media silliness but got one very similar because of the wide choice of numbers. She says that the man who recorded the default voicemail message has a lovely voice 😆

From A&A #AAISP
There's a newsletter attached to today's invoices which has info about some price rises to VoIP numbers & non-.uk domains. Details also here: https://www.aa.net.uk/etc/news/december-2022-newsletter/ We are not raising broadband prices at this time, and currently have no plans to do so.

@revk thanks so much for #AAISP I've been a customer since the mid 2000's still use your email and dns services.

I'm sorry it is taking time for #AAISP to have a presence here. As always, feel free to contact me if you need, but the plan is a proper business presence in the #fediverse, and working out the best way to do that following the rules and etiquette of the fediverse as well. Obviously our own instance, but also rules of conduct for staff and careful rules for any bots (such as opt-in line up/down direct messages, etc). Also, making sure "off net" so works when there are "issues", obviously.

@revk Accessible via #AAISP broadband (of course) but also mobile data. Well done, EE!
