    Are you paying them for support or for an internet connection?
    Generally the support guy who calls will be first line support just to take details of the fault.This is a fast response to tie in with customer sla's.Dont be surprised that you knew more its common and as they are basically secetaries i would be worried if you didnt.
    Networking, sometimes i love it, mostly i hate it.Its all about the $$$$

    I've not only ended up knowing more than a lot of them, I've caught some of them in blatant lies:

    "Uhh, no sir. It's not possible to network the cable connection you're paying us for, you'll just have to talk to our sales department and sign up for a broadband line for each computer in your house."

    (I'm thankful I didn't decide to go down there. I would have strangled him with his phonecord for telling customers stuff like that.)
