Re: Trouble with dsl connection.

Is this true for all ISP's? I have ping blocked on my AT&T ADSL connection, but I have never experienced a disconnect.

It's the router that's usually behind the drop, and no, it's not necessarily true for all. I don't know the characteristics of the OP's setup, but it's just another item to tick off for troubleshooting, though.
