Move to Dry Loop DSL

Currently I have a contract with Verizon Double Play until the end of March 2011. Does Verizon offer Dry Loop DSL? What do I need to do to move from "landline homephone+internet" to "internet" only.
Thanks,

Verizon offers Dry Loop DSL in most areas. Some areas might not offer it. As to why, I couldn't tell you. Just let Verizon know that you want to shut off the telephone service but keep the DSL on. They should be able to put in the request and adjust your bill accordingly. The DSL will go up a few dollars a month when switching to Dry Loop, keep in mind.
Just be aware that in some cases, Verizon may wind up disconnecting the actual copper loop itself. There should be no need to do this as it is controlled by software for the most part. On a dry-loop DSL line, you will receive a fast busy signal if you attempted to use a phone on it in most areas. Figured I'd give you the heads up on this as it's happened to a buddy of mine and he was by no means prepared for his DSL going dead a day after his phone service was turned off.

Slow Dry Loop DSL question

Hi,
I've had this dry loop dsl for a couple of months after getting rid of my home phone dial tone and using my VZW smartphone as my only source of voice comm. In the last month (March) speeds have been below dial-up speeds. Before going to dry loop I would typically get on the 1 MB plan 0.75mb down and .35mb up which worked great for me as I don't watch video, play online games or use a lot of bandwidth heavy sites on the net.
Now beginning in March it has dropped and sometimes just disconnects then returnes to:

Wondering what happened? I've done the turn on-turn-off Westell 6100 moded, reboot the computer, unplug the dsl line then plug it back into the modem...still can't get consistency like I had months before going to dry loop dsl.

You think a suggestion to Verizon on having the CO in my rural town move me off of a busy router/DSLAM to see if that would bring up my down stream and up stream numbers with consistency? Or maybe the line noise is bad. Or my TIB outside of the house that has been worked on a couple of years ago isn't compatible with dry loop dsl now?
Thanks for anyone taking the time to help out on this. First time poster here.

Are you only seeing speed drops during the evening hours or is this a case that occurs 24/7? The line statistics look fine now, but there's a difference between congestion, an incorrectly built PVC and physical line trouble.

Verizon Disconnected My Dry Loop DSL

I have had the Dry Loop DSL for two years after dropping my landline. I got the letter from them in May saying they were no longer offering the Dry Loop but for those that have it, nothing changes as long as you don't make a change to your account. Figured I was fine. I was away on business last week and came home to no internet. Spent an hour on the phone between Repair, Billing, back to Repair and then to Sales but all I could find out was there was a Pending Disconnect on my account but they couldn't tell me who did it or why. Funnily enough on the same day the Disconnect order went through, my Discover Card was billed the $41.99 for June. The last person I spoke with put an Investigation Order though to find out why this is happening and I was supposed to hear from someone Saturday or Monday. Nothing.
Has this happened to anyone else with the Dry Loop? They are telling me now to get reconnected, I'll have to bundle with a landline, which I don't want.
I plan on disputing the June charge with my credit card company and then go to Comcast. I can get way more speed for less money for the first year and then it will cost me more but at least I'll have more speed.
UPDATE: I got an email from Customer Service after submitting an issue yesterday telling me that once the diconnect order was placed, it can't be reversed or reconnected. NO ONE has told me yet WHO order it disconnected and WHY. They said they will refund me from the 6/22 diconnect date through July 9. I just placed an order with Comcast for Internet Only AND filled a complaint with the FCC. I did nothing to initiate this disconnect and if they can just randomly diconnect you and then try to force you into a bundled landline to get reconnected, then no dry loop customer is safe.

Dry loop dsl availablity in autumn creek, friendswood, tx

Hi,
I have verizon land line and dsl, would like to know if "dry loop dsl" is available in the autumn creek subdivision, friendswood, tx?
Thank you,
Solved!

Verizon themselves doesn't sell Dry Loop DSL anymore, however you can likely get it from a 3rd party / reseller over Verizon's lines still. Companies such as DSLExtreme tend to be good choices. Services will differ going with a third party in many cases, but the actual Internet connection will usually stay the same.

Dry loop DSL without 1 yr contract

I was wondering if fry loop DSL is available without 1 yr contract. I checked dry loop is available in my area. The weird thing is when I called customer service this lady called Bela from retention department said it is avilable only with 2 yr contract while the website doesnt mention anything about 2 yr contract.

Hi Yetendra,
Yes you can have a plan called as month to month[MTM] which doesnt have a annual contract.
If you are exiting customer with Verizon you can call 1-8005676789 to change it to MTM
However if you are new customer you can call 1-8004834000 to sign up
Thanks

DSL dry loop

How can I get DSL dry loop? I want to drop my phone service.

Verizon doesn't offer Dry Loop DSL anymore, even though there isn't a technical reason as to why they can't. You might want to look around for a DSL Reseller, since you're likely going to be able to get dry loop through them. DSL Extreme tends to be a common choice amongst others for Verizon.

Dry loop availability

I have been told both on the phone and using the online availbility checker that DLS is not available. Even though I am in a densly populated area, I am not close enough to a "switching station" apparently. But what about Dry Loop? Since it's carrying only data and no voice, would that distance limit be extended?
I already have a Verizon voice line, and an extra line running to the house, now disconected, that I used to use for dial up Intenet years ago. Was thinking that extra line could be converted to dry loop DSL with very little fuss.

I assume that's "wired" feet, rather than as the crow fliles. Correct? So there is no difference in feet for Data alone and Data and Voice together?

IPhone: Using embedded QT movies that either Loop or Loop Back and Forth

Hi to everyone,
I'm working on a very simple iPhone app:
it has several buttons that launch different QuickTime movies embedded in the application, that will either Loop or Loop Back and Forth.
The desired looping behaviour is already set within QuickTime itself (those settings are available in QuickTime's View menu).
So far it doesn't seem to work, as the iPhone's SDK doesn't seem to recognize these QuickTime settings of Loop or Loop Back and Forth.
I've been trying to find advanced documentation on the matter, with no luck.
Does anyone knows if it's possible to create an iPhone application that has embedded QuickTime movies that either Loop or Loop Back and Forth?
If it is possible to do so, can you please post some code (or links) explaining how to proceed?
If the feature is not currently supported, does anyone knows if it will eventually be supported by Apple (maybe in a future SDK revision)?
While I don't know the entire context the SDK engineering team has to contend with, it seems to me it should be rather simple for Apple's iPhone SDK to simply accept the settings already put in place inside a QuickTime movie.
Many thanks in advance for any feedback on this!

Well, my programmers have come back to me and the news is not good.
The QTMovieLoopsAttribute is not supported in the SDK's QT Kit.
I'll now call it SDK's *QuickTime Kit Lite*, if you don't mind.
*QuickTime Kit Lite*, the key audio/video toolbox available for development of applications on the iPhone through the SDK, provides a single option:
a Play / Stop button.
The only other thing available (I think) is the option to hide the play/stop controller. That's it.
Apparently, there are several unofficial, private frameworks that give access to lower-level QuickTime functions and that may provide a way to actually loop videos, but chances are that an app using these unofficial frameworks would get rejected by Apple upon submission for the store.
I'm still waiting for more info and the final word from my programmers, but from the looks of it, this is going to be a show-stopper shortcoming of QT Kit Lite, as far as my project is concerned.
I'm probably going to have to fold my project and wait (hope) for an eventual upgrade to the SDK's QT Kit.
By the way, does anyone knows if there is a way to communicate with Apple and request new features for inclusion in future revisions of the SDK?
Upgrading the QuickTime Kit librairies to include the video Loop and Loop Back and Forth Attributes would be my first (and only) request.
many thanks to all!

How do I stop a movie clip from looping

I am using Action Script 3 and the 'stop()' function is not working to stop my movie clips from looping continuously.
I have added the 'stop()' function to the last frame on the timeline of each movie clip.
I originally built the .fla file in Flash CS6 using Action Script 2 where it was working with no problems (I have since upgraded and don't have access to CS6 anymore).
I have all the separate movie clips positioned on Frame 1 of my main stage with the following script to start them playing:
Cigarette_Reveal.play();
KickTheHabit.play();
BallMove.play();
BallFlip.play();
Offer.play();
I want each of these movie clips to stop playing after one animation sequence is complete.
Please help!

Turn on strict mode in your publish settings. This will allow you to see the compiler errors that are preventing the actionscript in your fla from compiling correctly.

Can you set a .mov file to loop for ipad?

Spent now hours trying to get clips to loop when viewed on a ipad... it shows fine in explorer or on my Mac but on the ipad it will not autoplay or loop
Tried this
<video src="http://linktovideo.mov" width="576" height="576" controls="controls" autoplay="autoplay" loop = "loop" qtnext1="goto0" controller="false" kioskmode="true"></video>
But does not work for me any ideas or is it just not possible?

From : Safari HTML5 Audio and Video Guide
Warning: To prevent unsolicited downloads over cellular networks at the user’s expense, embedded media cannot be played automatically in Safari on iOS—the user always initiates playback. A controller is automatically supplied on iPhone or iPod touch once playback in initiated, but for iPad you must either set the controls attribute or provide a controller using JavaScript.

Stop(); not working. Movie clip is looping.(AS2)

I have made a movie clip that needs to play till the last frame and then stop there, but not dissapear. Right now, as I am putting the command stop(); on the first frame of the movie clip and on the last frame too, nothing is changing, the movie clip is still looping and does not stop at all.
What could be the problem?
p.s. I am really a beginner in Adobe Flash.

Can you show a screenshot of the timeline and where the stop() command are placed? If stop(); is the only code you are using then it sounds like you are putting the code in the wrong place.

I Can't stop my movie clip from looping

This is probably an easy fix, but I obviously can't get it. Below is the actionscript to loop my movie clip, but once it's activated, I can't get it to stop. I thought it would stop at 3. What did I miss??
Any help? Flash 8 (CS2).
on (rollOver){
for (i=0; i<=3; ++i){
audio_mov.duplicateMovieClip("audio_mov" +ii);

remove the stop() from the first frame of blur and assign your button an instance name (eg, btn). then see if this does what you want:
blur.stop();
var tl:MovieClip=this;
btn.onRollOver=function(){
blur.play();
btn.onRollOut=function(){
tl.onEnterFrame=function(){
if(blur._currentframe==1){
blur.stop();
delete this.onEnterFrame;

Getting Movie Theater to loop on AppleTV??

If I create a movie in iMovie 10.0.2 and save it with a loop, the movie loops when i wath it on my Mac. But if I watch it on my AppleTV via iMovie Theater it does not loop anymore! Any ideas how I can get the movie to Loop on the AppleTV?

Thanks Matthew.
The thing is... I would like to show a brandmovie in 300 stores around the world, and today I send USB sticks around that the shops can play back on the flatscreens in the shops, and on the flatscreens you can choose loop, so it works fine. But it would be FANTASTIC if I bought 300 appleTV and then via iMovie Theater could stream new videos to all shops all the time. BUT WITHOUT LOOPING IT'S NO GOOD!
That's my challange
Best regards Soren
