That’s interesting. I’ve had Verizon DSL since August and it has been ROCK SOLID up until about two weeks ago. Now it seems to go in and out. I called Verizon once and bitched to their tech support but Mr. India on the other end couldn’t get it through his thick skull that having a router plugged into the modem is not causing my problem. The problem is that the modem can’t keep sync with Verizon.
