Verizon DSL woes?

[mamajoan.livejournal.com]

Does anyone else here have Verizon DSL, and have you noticed it being unbelievably, painfully slow for the past several days? I'm talking, like, click a link and walk away for ten minutes slow. I can hardly get anything to load. Gmail keeps timing out. I've run some diagnostics from dslreports.com and gotten some very odd results.

I was thinking it was just me (I did call Verizon support and the guy tried to lay the blame on my antivirus software *roll eyes*) but I just heard from a friend in the area that she's having issues as well, so I thought I'd ask....

Yep, we had the exact some problem. This is the first time I've managed to get online at all since sunday night! Rrrrrrr...

Me too! but Joan knew that already. If they bill us for those days, I say we riot. =P Same deal, slowness, then completely dead for 48 hrs, finally back. (I just found this thread now because duh, no internet for 48hrs and unloadable LJ for 3 days before that, and I was looking for another ancient post in DSLJ.)
