You have sync, but are you consistently maintaining?

If you have an external ADSL modem, keep it at eye-level so that you can quickly check the status lights for sync loss whenever you experience surfing problems. If you have an internal ADSL modem, afix reflective material on the wall behind your PC so that you can see the modem status lights easily. This is an excellent use for AOL CDs (thanks to Andy Parris for this technique).

ANY regular loss of sync is an indication of a g.DMT problem. Ocasionally, you might lose sync if maintenance is being performed on your DSLAM, but that should be rare.
