My Dsl Modem Is Messed Up?

[Abe]

I checked the cords and there all connected and the computer , fine, and also my xbox is fine but my dsl connection will go in and out dissconnecting and connecting back, like 15 every 2 mins. But my dsl box is 1 week old.

? what could it be? <_<


EDIT: The amount of bandwich going though does not affect the process,

This sounds like a problem with your line.

Yep, no doubt about it. It is his line or his modem

while i do use 256k cable i have had the displeasure of using dsl... its disconnects can be a pain if you have a less than great ISP...

most ISP&#39;s have a technical support phone # which is 24/7 which can usually be found:
on the modem
on the service package pamphlet
on the bill
in the phonebook
on the website

i&#39;ve had some problems with the connecting cable on the cable modem usually the problem is something so small you would even think of... in my case it was a stray grounding wire in touching the coaxial cable wire, which was my fault from when i had to re-locate the computer to the other end of the house using the same wire, i had to severe the connecter to get it through the hole in the floor then, run it to the other end of the house into a different room, then re-attach the connectors head then after a few hours of thinking about how to solve the problem i check over everything lastly the actual cable then fixed it.
