I may as well bring this up. Has anyone else experienced severe line
noise influencing a DSL connection?
This is the case with me, and I've escalated the problem a few times
and even had an ill-equipped and misinformed tech drop by
(unannounced).
I have repairs semi-arranged.. but I wanted to know if, aside from the
obvious, there were any system / firewall settings or the like which
might make my experience a little better.
Running Sympatico regular DSL on a Bell line. I've done the obvious
stuff with the handset/wiring and whatnot. At this point it's all in
the preferences for my own setup I figure.
I exchanged my modem for another one which seems to be much more
aggressive with reconnecting during downtime. I occasionally stay
connected but lose any actual use of the connection. Sometimes I drop
out completely for a while.. sometimes there is lag which would make a
gamer gnaw their own arm off.
