| OK what the heck is wrong with Verizon Wireless DSL Internet.. It's been down for over a week.. It does this thing where it will connect only for a minute then like goes dead then reconnects.. Had anyone else been having problems! |

| No this isn't the usual drop where it will do it every so often.. I think Verizon is having serious problems, when I try to do anything it'll kick off to the point we can't go online more then a few minutes at a time |

| Whatever you are paying for dsl it's not worth it. If you can get cable that's what I would do. I have had one drop since I'v had cable. Well worth the money. Also save a lot from getting rid of Direct TV and getting cable TV. I also dumped the home phone. Lots of savings and better internet. |

| Yup, same drops here, almost daily. Luckily, it's been temporary and I only have to reset the modem. Didn't have any cell service one morning recently, but the DSL was working fine...

| It's weird. I've had it for about 5 years or more and the only thing I had happen was the wireless router quit. They mailed me a new one in a day or two.

| I've had verizon DSL since 2003 and havent had any problems until recently. It seems around 4-5PM it goes out and sometimes takes hours to get back.
