I've never experienced it at all. Maybe because I'm buried and my lines are newer and better shielded. Who knows?]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-connectivity-Lightning-18713908 Fri, 20 Jul 2007 16:51:00 EDT http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-connectivity-Lightning-18711748 My DSL works great until there is a thunderstorm in the area. Like clockwork, before the rain or wind arrives but there's rumbling off in the distance (15-20mi away perhaps), the DSL starts losing sync often. Then it seems once the frull bunt of the storm is overhead, it's fine. So I'm fairly certain it's not water infiltration. After having Verizon come out on a few perfectly clear days and finding nothing wrong, I gave up having them try and fix the problem. It's a minor annoyance as the DSL does resync pretty quickly. The biggest issue is that if it takes longer than 30-35 seconds to resync, PPPoE drops and I get a new IP address, which means reestablishing all my remote logins. I'm switching to static ip in the hopes of getting around that issue.
I should also note, this isn't my first experience with DSL. My parents have had Speakeasy over Covad for several years now and I can't recall their DSL ever going out due to lightning (and they're further from the CO than I am). However, to be fair, they also have a static ip, so it's possible I just never noticed it.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-connectivity-Lightning-18711748 Fri, 20 Jul 2007 11:45:44 EDT http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-connectivity-Lightning-18707959 http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-connectivity-Lightning-18707959 Thu, 19 Jul 2007 20:42:01 EDT http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-connectivity-Lightning-18707438 http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-connectivity-Lightning-18707438 Thu, 19 Jul 2007 19:37:49 EDT http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-connectivity-Lightning-18706949
Even if modem loses sync router should quickly reestablish the link causing minimum inconvenience.
