Going to the TW store and getting a new modem is certainly the most expedient solution. If it can fix the problem, it will save you literally hours on hold.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I definitely lucked out calling today -- hardly any hold time.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
I had a Comcast-supplied cable modem that was crap - the connection kept dying and restarting. I bought a new one from Radio Shack, which has worked perfectly. A Comcast service guy later told me their modems were crap....

XML hell here.
I have a web page that's produces by applying an xsl stylesheet to some xml. It stopped working for our client, but it still works here, with the exact same xml and stylesheet. What happens at the client is a big chunk of the resulting html just gets ommitted.
Is there any way to debug an application of a stylesheet?
(style is applied with Javascript:
var strTimesheet = objTimesheet.transformNode(objStylesheet);
window.document.all("frmMain").innerHTML = strTimesheet;
)

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
I have an ipod wired into my car stereo system-- wiring wise, it took the place of the six disk player I could have had installed. It stopped working this morning, and it is definitely not the ipod that's wonky. I think it's something in the wiring, but I'm not sure.
Generally sppeaking, is this something I need to take to the car dealer, or is a car stereo installation place likely to know how to fix it? Which is likely to be cheaper?

Have you tried resetting the iPod?

Perkins, you mentioned to me that the ipod cable was installed by the dealer in the first place, so that's probably your best bet.

Oh hey, so far so good with the new modem, and getting it at the TW store was way easier than getting an appointment. Yay!

Yep
Thanks Tom! I was afraid that was going to be the answer.

The concensus of the hard-core BMWphiles I work with is to always go to the dealer for *anything*
