Does anyone here have it and live in the California area? I've been having problems and Verizon is not much help. It goes up and down and it usually says something like "well known provider not available". The DSL light on the modem blinks and I can hear the hissing on the line coming and going. Just wonder if anyone one else has this problem.
Probably not or it would already be posted.
I think Im running into your issue that you had. When we use our telephone the wireless gateway works.
When we hang up the phone, the internet connectivity drops, then the DSL light starts flashing. Its intermitint, but a pain in the ass. Especially when trying to play Xbox and its keeps dropping me out of games.
I also noticed our caller ID hasent recoreded any calls since the 11/10
Something is really wrong with our lines.
Last night I took the phone off the hook and let it just sit there for a few hours so I could use the computer and play Xbox live

Not a bad idea.

Speaking of the filters, mine never worked worth a crap. Noise still got through.

Im only using 2 of the 3 phone jacks in our house. One for the Wireless gateway and the other for the phone. I switched the filter- no change.
I disconnected the phone- no change
Changed the phone cords- no change.
Either the gateway is bad, or there is something wrong with verizons lines leading up to the house.

was that the only thing affected in the house by the lightning strike.

Apparently.
I have been with verizon for about 4 years the service is fast and I have
been happy with them.The last couple of months I have been having the
same issues no connection,booted off line,ect. Called teach support did
many walk throughs and trouble shooting. Would work for a short time and
then back to the same. Last Saturday asked for a Tech Suppervisor he
repeated everything we had already done had me keep a log of what was
happening time,lights,ect.
Called me back for the info. Sunday morning had 2 Techs at my house on
Monday. They ran speed test on the modem boosted my signal and did
some test out at the box has been faster and no more connection trouble.
Working great I am in Callaway area if you are still having trouble keep a
log and ask for a Suppervisor.

Trying to help
Some people???? Just trying to help I know how annoying it can be
and I was getting no were with Tech support. I would think that by
you reading to the end of this forum you must be having a problem
also. I bet you ran and got a pen and pencil so you could start
your log before calling and asking to speak to a Tech supervisor.
Let me know how Dinner was and who paid.

Oh, don't take it personally.... everyone tries to catch everyone else's typos and make fun of it. Just games here. The info you provided was informative. To get a thumbs up from DR is a good thing!
