Hall appears to be correct, but I did not have an easy time finding it. Ric, check out: http://www.broadbandreports.com/faq/952 and you will find instructions for setting up your new SBC Yahoo account with username and password. I have not attempted to follow these instructions because I have my account set up already, but I do wish I had been aware of them, as Hall points out, because it might have saved some time.
Here's the information I found in the "Ameritech" forum (http://www.dslreports.com/faq/1342):
=================================================================
Q: How do I get a username and password for my new account? (Update 12-03-02) (#1342)
A: Use the CD provided in your installation kit and see SBC Support for more information.
Or, do it manually using the following as the PPPoE login:
Username: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Password: sbcyahooreg
Go to the following URL to complete registration: https://sbcreg.sbcglobal.net/
If you are an existing customer, that is NOT the address you should use to migrate. See this FAQ for instructions on how to migrate.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
NOTE: The following information is for reference only. All new account registrations must be done through the SBC-YAHOO! interface described above.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
As of 9/4/01, the [EMAIL PROTECTED] (password:reguser) temporary login account should take you directly to the registration page where you can set up your account for the first time. It may take a day or so after you first get sync for the systems to update and your registration to succeed. You can go to registration directly at https://registration.ameritech.net/autoreg/servlet/Autoreg. As of 7/15/02 the online registration is very shaky and is offline a lot, so if at first you don't succeed...
Old registration site was http://registration.ameritech.net/cgi-bin/iaf/dslmilan
