Help, I'm just about at my wits end. I think someone at Bell is sabotaging me! For the last 2 months I've had the following symptoms. Every hour at 20 minutes to the hour (40 minutes after) I stop receiving incoming packets from the Alcatel Speed Touch modem. (The rcv light stops flashing). I have to wait at least 5 minutes then disconnect (since I never loose sync, the modem doesn't know I've lost the connection) and then reconnect. After that the connection will be great for another 55 minutes. Bell and my ISP (dsl.ca) both deny it is their equipment. ( I'm sure it's Bell's) I know its not mine because I can take my computer and my modem to my office (where I have another account with DSL.ca) and log on just fine, and never loose the connection. Alternatively, I take my office equipment home and log in, and experience the same problem. I think this experiment proves it's not DSL.CA's equipment either. It HAS TO BE SOMETHING AT THE CO. But what? Does anybody know much about ATM systems and Redback SMS to be able to shed some light on this? cheers, darryl
