Basic troubleshooting is required here.

I had a tech to come out and he said that I needed to drop back down to 1.5. The tech said something about being to far out from the CO, and something about my DSL bottlenecking, etc. I did not understand allot he had to say. So I drooped my DSL back down to 1.5 and I have not had anymore problems with my DSL drooping out.

lightning can wreck havoc on dsl especially with it being a marginal connection. EMP, i think that's what it's called.

:) I think it's called EMI, Electromagnetic Interference. Lord knows it wreaks havoc on my DSL connection, unless I'm using my 2 Wire; instead of disconnects, I get lag, but I'm not complaining...much.. ]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,17551000 Sat, 30 Dec 2006 22:53:35 EDT Re: so it's moderately thundering and raining.. http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,17550610 matt498 : lightning can wreck havoc on dsl especially with it being a marginal connection.

Might have a marginal fault on the phone line. Wet splice causes grounds, shorts, and imbalances which hurt DSL service. Gotta go through the basic troubleshooting first to figure out what we have wrong.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,17549089 Sat, 30 Dec 2006 16:52:55 EDT Re: so it's moderately thundering and raining.. http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,17548965 Pashune : x.X well, do you remember if your stats were fine last time you checked 'em?]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,17548965 Sat, 30 Dec 2006 16:26:43 EDT Re: so it's moderately thundering and raining.. http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,17548928 scowl : Cant access launchmodem since I'm on a bridged ethernet connection with my router.

and I've been disconnected around 15 times so far. I'm guessing there's nothing i can do about this?

Has it always done this? I've yet to find a REAL solution to fixing the whole storm/sync issue, other than switching to a different modem other than the Westell 6100., and that only marginally helps. >. How are your stats though?]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,17548887 Sat, 30 Dec 2006 16:09:49 EDT so it's moderately thundering and raining.. http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,17548746 scowl : and I've been disconnected around 15 times so far.
