Oh, the irony

herveusFound on the online help page from Verizon under the symptom "cannot connect to the Internet":
If you still can't connect to the Internet, visit Verizon Repair.
...and, heard on the phone while holding for "help" with this problem:
"You can do all this online."
Right.
Verizon is creating significant annoyance. Three times in the last ten days, we've had the internet go out. Rebooting the router seems to have been the fix, but it's disappointing, to say the least.
I'm not astonished that the "piece of crap" consumer grade router that I had with the DSL connection (and bought by me in my ignorance) needed periodic reboots, but I expect better out of the gear provided by Verizon. Maybe I'm a foolish optimist.
