Verizon DSL Problems
Matt:
my dsl is constantly going out... It's fast when its connected, but it isn't very reliable.
Does anyone know the possibility of cable in wrightwood?

MY DSL only went out once. I have Verizon and the only time it has gone out is 2 days ago, I just reset the modem and it runs fine now. Is anyone still having problems with the Verizon DSL problem? The reason why I ask is because one of my friends has Verizon DSL and it is still out.

My DSL service has been fantastic! But now each day around lunchtime, the modem begins recycling continuously. Resetting it fixes it MOST of the time, but sometimes it will recycle for hours, giving intermittent service. Anyone have any similar story?

I just signed up for Verizon DSL a couple of months ago, and I've had problems. Mine was down two complete days last week, and now it is sporadic. I've spoken to others in Wrightwood and the nearby areas and they are having problems, too. It appears that the outage is random also -- I was still down while someone just a few blocks away was up again. I have called more than once and last week they told me over 20,000 customers were having service problems, and they didn't know why yet. In addition, I thought I had signed up for dial-up, but really wasn't -- even though one of their computers said I was and one said I wasn't. Anyway, my friend finally got it all set up for me last week so I was able to use my dial-up when DSL was down. I need it because I work away from home at times. It's an extra $9 per month. I'm not sure other services charge the extra, but it's been worth it with all the problems. Just make sure you are truly signed up before you really need to use it.

This recent weekend outage was the only problem I've had in a long time. Overall, I am very satisfied with my Verizon dsl.
