<title>daily recurrent loss of DSL connection overnight</title>
<link>http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,23347659</link>
<description><![CDATA[I can't tell at what time the problem starts, but I have noticed it first Saturday morning. I called tech support, but other than a line check, nothing much could be done, as the connection came back online during the call.  On Sunday, there was no DSL for several hours in the morning.  It happened again today.   The failure can be seen on the SpeedStream modem - the atm light does not come on. 

 DSL finally came back up sometime around 7 AM this morning.

The problem goes away for an unknown reason.  Although I try all the customary procedures to fix a connection, they do nothing.

Logic says that since it occurs in the same time period daily, something must be happening on phone lines outside my control.

This is unacceptable.  I'm paying for DSL 24/7, not just when the phone lines feel up to carrying it.  The issue sure looks like it needs to investigated with the phone company.  

have sent PM with account information.]]></description>

<title>Email Issues Anyone?</title>
<link>http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,23372846</link>
<description><![CDATA[I just found out that a number of my emails are being blocked by well known spam blockers such as Postini. Now at first i thought it might be due to using html type email but that is not the case. I use Mozilla Thunderbird and by default all email I send is regular text. So recently I sent a few emails to friends at a company that uses Postini to filter spam and stuff. I didn't get any replies and no emails bounced. I contacted my friends and none of them got my emails in there Inbox. I've never had this problem in the past. I tried sending email from both my dslextreme.com address as well as a standard gmail.com address I recently set up. None of them got through. I created an email account with live.com (Hotmail) and all emails got through just fine. I had a couple of folks check there postini mail center options, and none of them had a specific block but all were able to find my previous emails in there spam box. The problem is not with the users, rather that Postini has added a general block for all gmail servers which DSLExtreme now uses. A lot of large companies use services like Postini to filter there email before it gets to there company servers. I used to work at one. This is totally unacceptable and I hope someone at DSLX will get this looked into. If you need to know what domain I am trying to send email too, let me know and I'll PM it. I've tried over 10 people at this company and none of the emails I send from dslextreme.com get through.]]></description>

<title>[FiOS] Install with existing fiber, but no service?</title>
<link>http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,23383624</link>
<description><![CDATA[My parents are moving to a different house, and this one has a working ONT hanging on the side of it, along with inside wiring via coax and Ethernet.  They are not moving any Verizon services over to this house, so how would the DSL Extreme process work?  I've ordered DSL Extreme's fiber service for them, so will it just magically work one day on the Ethernet port on the ONT?  That would be awesome, since I could avoid an install day, but pre-sales didn't know the answer (to what's probably an esoteric question to start with).

<title>[DSL] Slow DL speed -- Is line Capped?</title>
<link>http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,23385939</link>
<description><![CDATA[Over the weekend my DL speed dropped from around 5 Mbps to 2.8 Mbps.  I've been running with a good DL speed connection for several years.  Is it possible AT&T has capped me ... is there anyway I can tell?]]></description>

<title>ATT U-Verse &#x26;amp; DSL Extreme DSL</title>
<link>http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,23368502</link>
<description><![CDATA[I have a few questions regarding my current ATT DSL and DSL Extreme. Our house has 2 separate dsl lines coming in (one is mine and the other my brothers) and I currently want to drop my ATT DSL and pick up Uverse.  But apparently when I called they said it was a conflict of service with DSL Extreme so im not able to get that.

Which makes absolutely no sense to me on why not. I have no idea why I cant drop my att dsl and pick up uverse simply because my brother has DSL Extreme DSL. So im assuming any apartment complex with anyone using DSL Extreme the entire complex cant get uverse either? Im kind of confused on this matter and I could really use some answers to this problem.

With today's technology I would have thought something this simple would not happen but hey its their lost business I guess. Another thing that I dont understand is since I already have ATT DSL, why cant I simply upgrade that to uverse lol. Im so baffled its not even funny anymore.]]></description>

<title>[FiOS] FIOS Install - Bay Area</title>
<link>http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,23332968</link>
<description><![CDATA[I am not seeing a lot of Bay Area subscribers on FIOS so let me chronicle my experience in this thread.  I just applied to the FIOS 20/20 service on Nov 10.  I am coming from Comcast Cable with their 20/5 service.  I am getting right about 20/5 from Speedtest with ~21-23ns ping time with Comcast.  So let me see how this compares to FIOS.

I am running a web server so the 20mbps upload speed will greatly help and that is the main reason I moved to FIOS.  Others includes no bandwidth throttling and the stupendous 250Gb monthly cap.  Both Comcast and FIOS do not block port 80.  I can live with port 25 blocked just like in any ISP but the good thing about DSLExtreme is I can apply to unblock it if I want.

I plan to replace the coax with ethernet depending on where the ONT will be located and switch the router with my Cisco 851.  With 1 DHCP IP, I can set-up the Cisco to dynamic dns so I really do not need static IP's since I plan to use it on 1 web server only.

So stay tuned.  I will keep updating this thread and let you all know (particularly Bay Area residents) how it goes.]]></description>

<title>[DSL] I&#x27;m less than thrilled with DSLX lately</title>
<link>http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,23296837</link>
<description><![CDATA[I've been a DSLX customer for years. And for the most part, I have had good service. I'm on the 6Mb fixed price plan and our RT is like half a block away. Over the last couple months, my connection has been mediocre at best. Way higher ping rates than usual and the connection seems to drop more frequently (twice last week). Today, my speeds were an appalling 2.5Mb down. I reset the modem and speeds seems to be a little more normal. However, some sites are still really slow or do not come up at all. For example, www.speedtest.net never finishes loading and neither does www.macnn.com. Nothing has changed on my network or my phone lines. Same results for wired and wireless computers. What's the deal?

Honestly, I would love to finally get off DSL and get some fiber connection. But... I live in an AT&T area and I do not want their Uverse crap (I love my DirecTV). AT&T is pure evil as far as I'm concerned. :)]]></description>
