internet problem
my stupid SBC internet keeps dropping me
sometime is says theres a broadband link problem then drops me
and most of the time there is no broadband link problem but it still drops me
it works for like 5 mins then cuts off then like a few mins later it will work for 5 mins again
is it the service or is it my modem

RE: internet problem
Happened to me with Comcast..most likely you gotta get a new modem. The old ones don't support the
new network speeds/networks themselves. Worked perfect since upgrading.

RE: internet problem
You might be on old copper lines still, I had the same problems and couldn't get the full bandwidth. I called them and had them move my dsl to go over their fiber lines to the DSLAM. This fixed the problem and I'm now able to get full 3mbps bandwidth. I'm not sure if fiber is available in your area but if it is they can switch you over at no charge. If this is not possible where you live I'd switch to cable...

Oh, one more thing. I kinda got ahead of myself. You should first try swapping out the modem and see if that helps. It's also possible that the wiring in your house is bad, so theres a ton of different things that might be wrong. What you can also do is call them and have them test the lines for errors going to your house.
