| 10k ft shouldnt be an issue
I am a tech for a large telco, 10,000 feet as the cable runs is not a problem at all for 3Meg DSL. I install it all the time. There could be other issues, bridge tap, inside wire issues, filtering issues, burglar alarm, etc. 90% of the problems I see with DSL lines are the customers inside wire or equipment, the signal is usually good up to the NID(Network interface) on the side of the house. The only other reason for you to be having problems is if that particular CO does not have some other newer DSLAM hardware that allows for longer loop lengths. I might suggest a professional install where a tech comes out and runs a new inside wire and jack to your modem and splits the dsl signal externally at the NID. This will negate any interferers introduced to the line from inside wire conditions and equipment. | |

@bellsouth.net | Since you seem to lose your connection during or after storms there might be a line quality condition outside, I would suggest calling the repair service, not DSL tech support, and see if there are any noticeable line quality issues. | |
