Is the Internet light going out on your router if it's a Verizon supplied unit or no? DSL light just indicates sync (signal). Slow flash means no signal/sync, fast flashing means training.

I have the same problem daily sometimes 3 or 5 time a day it must be restarted. The DSL light is on but the internet light is out. I can bet on it going out between 2 and 4 pm every day yet when I call service they keep telling me it is my equipment. I do not believe them and they refuse to send repairman to fix the lines.

Same here. DSL light goes from red to solid green and no internet light. Hence no connection to the outside world.
Having the same issue that you are having. Been ongoing off & on for the past 3 months. Once I get past the baby steps troubleshooting I can finally convince someone in India to let me speak to a supervisor then they admit they are having outages in the NYC area.
I wishh there were other choices in my area besides cable modem.

carman,
Its **bleep**...
Verizon called me several times yesterday to say they were fixing an "outage" problem. Finally they did in fact straighten it out.
There is nothing wrong with your firewall or AV.... next time you call support, ask for a supervisor. Tell them you want to bypass the computer 101 troubleshooting.

Alrighty. Is this still an issue at all? To see if you're having DNS issues, have you tried setting some DNS servers manually in your PC? Sometimes the gateways have issues with processing DNS requests if they take on a lot of traffic and also Verizon's servers are known to exhibit issues from time to time. Often times the modem's logs will clue into this issue if you're willing to supply them.
If you need instructions for any of this just let us know! Keep an eye on the lights too in case the situation changes.

Are you running a D-Link modem/gateway from Verizon?
