<p class="MsoNormal">I have been having intermittent network connectivity dropouts
through Earthlink DSL for the last 6 months. After hours on the phone I have talked
to a dozen L3 techs that admit they can see a problem, and that they think it
is at their end, but they can’t fix it. It is now so bad I’m
rebooting my modem ever 15 minutes or so to stay online.<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal">I would love to go fiber, but I don’t think it’s
available in my neighborhood yet. Any suggestions on how to maintain a fast
connection in Altadena?<o:p></o:p></p>
