dsl troubleshooting

Hi gang,

My dsl connection is givng me trouble and I can't pinpoint the problem.  I
wonder if anyone might have any advice. The problem is my computer loses
connection with dsl periodically, usually for a couple of minutes at a time.
My provider, SWBell, says they see no problem on their end. I have a repair
order in with the phone co, as there has been some line static as well.
However, the more I think about it, it seems like there may be another
issue. SWBell says that my account has been logging on once a day or so, not
the dozens of times I have lost connection. It seems as though the issue
might be either the modem, the router (a pretty new smc that normally works
great) or computer. I've tried a direct connect on the computer, but cannot
get the darn sbc software to work right. So I am stumpted. Any suggestions
would be appreciated. Before this started yesterday, there were absolutely
no problems.

Thanks,
Chris
