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 !

What is this Internet service?????

I recently bought a IBM laptop from eBay and it comes with a 802.11g Wireless LAN PC card. When I switch the laptop on, it suddenly connect me to the internet and I was browsing. BUT….I am not a subscriber of any internet service DSL or dial-up….AND I was not around or close to any internet wireless router when I use the laptop…I was in the middle of a parking lot. How was I able to access the net? It happened everytime I switch on the laptop even when I am in my office where there is no wireless service. Can someone enlighten me on this???
By the way, I am in Dover, NH.

I have a question about the Nintendo Wii and the Virtual Console?

Do I have to purchase a wireless router if I don’t have wireless access at home? I really want to download old games but all I have is a DSL wired modem. If I do have to get a wireless router, is it bad to go for the cheapest one or do I really need to look for a high quality one? HELP PLEASE!!

My other computer says network cable unplugged in the LAC section, and I am using a wireless router…?

When I put in the WIndows XP CD in and installed everything, I went to set-up my local area connection, but in the bottom-right corner of the screen, it says “Network Cable Unplugged”. Isn’t that for dial-up connections? I am trying to connect to my netowrk using my other computer which has a wireless router, and this router is working because my thrid computer just connected to this. My router can handle up to 4 servers connecting to it, but my computer always says “Network Cable Unplugged” HELP! I need this computer working before school starts!
