This interface is terrible. SETI used to be FUN. Now it has morphed into a breaureau crapic unresponsive piece of...well so much for us little guys... we're overwhelmed. You may think you have found THE answer with BOING but to be on dial-up and see these innane messages "deferring....2minutes"etc. Monumental waste of MY DIAL-up time. LOOkS like another Denver airport baggage handling senario. |

Hello and welcome Terry, as I never crunched with Classic, I don't know what would have happened if the Server side of the system had problems. What would the reactions of SetiQueue nave been on a dial up modem with Berkeley unreachable? I really want to know this, because I can't think of another way but saying 'Sorry, no connection', perhaps in some other syntax, but with the same meaning. Boinc itself works fine on my puter since October last year. Seti sometimes has trouble with their servers, as they have to maintain 2 different sets of them with the personal for only one project (and they had some outside problems with Power- and Internet- Service suppliers). But afaik Classic was affected as well, and if I got it right from my team board (mixed with Classicers and Boincys), they had the same experiences at those times as us Boincers.
