Fought with Frontier for 3 hours on the phone, finally drove the 50 miles to the site because Frontier is useless. Turns out the user had SWITCHED the WAN and WLAN patch cables on the firewall. WHY????? I guess they panicked on the first day and just unplugged everything...

We have moved away from Frontier because they suck. They over charge, don't deliver on service and their customer service just sucks. We have had much luck and service with Suddenlink. Also we hired a company called Spyglass three years ago and they went through all our billing for all phone and internet service for over payments and so forth. They save us a to bunch of money and educated us in the process. Fast forward to today and they did another analysis and found nothing substantial because we been on to of Frontier, Suddenlink and ATT little tricks.

I use Mobile 1 5w 30 in the Miata. Because my Z is mostly track I run Eneos Sustina 0w 50 for better heat management. That being said you can't go wrong with Mobile1 products IMHO.

Yup. When frontier first took over, I placed a trouble ticket. They said theyll send out a tech... in EIGHT DAYS!! unacceptable, specially for a business class acct.

So the saga continues... I sheared off the bolt trying to get the bushing in. I think I was going in at a slight angle. Punched the bushing back out and now it's in the freezer. Gives me time to spit shine my exhaust...

Went to my MRI appointment and couldn’t do it. They wanted me in positions that caused excruciating pain. Now the get to bring out the big guns and shoot me full of pain meds before next try.

Going to have Rusty look at my fuses and electronics. Car started without much issue this morning. put it on ramps and did an oil change. Took my time doing other stuff and went to start the car about 2 hrs after the oil change finished. Car was completely dead. I had to jump start it. Drove it for an hr and voltage was at 14.1 on the battery gauge. So I have absolutely no clue now. I replaced the battery in October since it had died before as well.
