Verizon DSL or just DSL problem in general ?

I had Verizon DSL for 11 months and very UNHAPPY with it. My browser would not connect to the internet at least twice to 4 times a day, I would have to turn the Verizon provided wireless router off and turn it back on for it to work. I asked Verizon for a different wireless router and the same thing still happens. So now it is a rountine for me to turn the wireless router off and back on few times a day. I called Verizon technician and they told me it is normal. Is this Normal?? ? Is this what people with DSL have to go through every day or just Verizon DSL service ?
My 1 year contract is up with them next month so I think I’m going to swith to Time Warner high speed internet. I will probably go with the cheapest package which is Road Runner Standard 4M x 512K* or 6M x 384K* which I dont even know which one to pick or if it is fast compare to Verizon 765k package I have. I’m just so tired of running down stairs to turn the wireless router off/on. Thanks for any advice !

I Can’t Find a Fast Internet?

ok i’ve been searching for a high speed internet to buy and i can’t seem to find one that provides internet where i live. I’ve tried Verizon, ATT, Netzero, and they all say that they don’t provide internet services at my address. I have Verizon Phone service so i would think i could get verizon high speed. And I’ve tried entering my sisters address, she lives 3 miles away and it seems to work there.

What should i do i’m sick of dial up and I don’t think i can afford wireless. I really don’t want to spend more than $30/m

And i live in Michigan, USA if that helps

Internet service options for outlying area?

I work for a NPO, the internet access at our youth camp in Palestine, Texas is via satellite and painfully slow on its best days. Its better than dial up I guess but not by a whole lot. None of the local service providers extend out that far. Internet access from any of the mobile companies like Verizon or Clear won’t work either, we tried it and it didn’t get any signal at all. Does anybody out there have any ideas how we could get better and more reliable internet access in a area like this?
Let me reiterate, we cannot get reception from Verizon or Clear devices connected to any of the computers, cell phone signals have the same problem out there, either no bars or really low and unreliable signal.
