I was having the exact same problems with the Westell 6100 modem. I replaced it with a Netopia 2241N-006 modem and I have not lost sync one time during bad weather or a thunderstorm. With the Westell 6100, every time a thunderstorm would be within 10 miles of my house, I would lose sync. You would think AT&T would know this and stop sending out the Westell 6100 to new customers. Even when I was having these problems with this modem, tech support would tell me that its not the modem, they would say that it is somewhere in the line. They even sent a tech person out to my house two different times to check my line and they could not find any problems. I think the tech guy was just making something up about me being to far out from the CO and blowing me off because he did not know what the hell he was talking about!
Anyway, I'm 100% sync now with no problems, thanks to AT&T so called tech support! -- "The Lord is my light and my salvation; whom shall I fear? the Lord is the strength of my life; of whom shall I be afraid?"
