That sounds exactly like what I have. I called it in as a POTS problem and the support rep said there were indeed problems with the line and they were trying to fix it.

Thanks again for the link.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,21226495 Mon, 06 Oct 2008 23:35:00 EDT http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,21208182 d_l : »Ameritech - SBC FAQ »DSL works only with phone off-hook, known as High Open]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,21208182 Thu, 02 Oct 2008 23:56:25 EDT http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,21208102 danep : This is very interesting. The modem can be down for long periods, but will sync within seconds of me picking up the phone (the line quality sounds fine, FWIW). I have tried this three times now. Has anyone experienced this or know what it might indicate?]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,21208102 Thu, 02 Oct 2008 23:42:36 EDT http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,21176888 anon : Same thing. It started approx. the day of the hurricane. I figured it was ATT cutting back to allow the crucial communications through.

I was testing pretty frequently and getting my paid for speed on test of 1.5 to 1.8ish.

Since the hurricane came through, my max dl is 384. I've done several test a day.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,21176888 Sat, 27 Sep 2008 03:10:20 EDT http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,21172155 danep : Hi,

Starting about a week ago, my connection has been dropping frequently and getting worse - it's probably been down for 90% of the morning. On average, the sync light blinks green or red for 5-10 minutes, then turns solid and the internet is usable for a minute or so, and the connection drops again.

There are no other devices (phones/faxes/anything) plugged in in my apartment. When I plug in a phone, the line quality sounds okay. Nothing has changed on my end. The only significant event coinciding with this is the arrival of Ike :) But I don't think the problem started until well after that, and as I said it's only been getting worse.

I had a similar problem when I first got my service, but thanks to some great help from the techs on this board everything was working great for a few months (thanks!) I'd really appreciate it if you could help me out again.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,21172155 Fri, 26 Sep 2008 10:57:42 EDT
