Frank,
Interesting...Where are you located?  DSL just never has seemed to work 
very well here...drops the connection a lot--at various locations, not 
just one.  The system was down most of the day on Friday for a lot of 
people in fact...  normally its just annoying because the modem needs to 
be reset at a lot of locations.
