Do you have intermittent connection?

I do have this problem and it drives me nuts. I am in the middle of something and suddenly my dsl goes down. I know what the problem is.. it is because I live in a small town where only 4 of us has dsl and the system here is not very good but it is the only game in town. They hate hearing from me when it goes down for a long period because I know more then most of the techs do which isn't a lot so that is bad*L* I have gotten to the point I don't even let them send the techs to my house anymore because they get so nervous and end up asking me questions.*L* The guy in the home office does know what he is doing and so I just talk to him and he already knows he has to do it over the phone with me. It goes down everytime we have a lot of rain or snow, if the wind blows too hard, or if someone sneezes by the building*L*
