I been having Intermittent connection problems for the past 4 months now. I have called Verzion Tech Support offshore about 25 times during that time. All they do is try to send out a technician every time I called. So far tech support has sent out 6 technicians and all have done about the same thing. It is a very frustrating situation. The tech support hold times are terrible and always get the same story. The Internet connection goes down around 5pm every single day. It will be down from about 1 to 4 hours a day. When the technician has come by it has been during working hours and Internet appears to always be fine. Apparently, all equipment and even the port has been changed but still having the same issue.
If anyone has an suggestions, please let me know. I am about to cancel all services with Verizon because of this terrible experience with support.

The router is wireless Westell model 7500. This is also a new modem that was switch out when this issues first started happening. I do not believe it is a router issue. The Verizon "professionals" do not seem to know what the is causing the issue so anything is possible.
I do reboot the modem once a week to refresh it but does not seem to work either.

Interesting log.
While I do not know for sure, let us check some stuff.
#1 In the router go to Advanced -> Universal Plug and Play (OR Advanced -> UPnP)
#2 Is UPnP On or Off?
#3 Do you have at least two special type of computers that are behind your router that support UPnP were you can not define the port(s) that they use?
For example a game console.
#4 If you do not know, please post what the special type of computer(s) you have.
#5 In the router at Advanced, go to DNS Server.
#6 What is/are the DNS Servers set to?
#7 In the router go to My Network -> Network Connections
#8 Click the Edit icon next to the text that says Broadband Connection
#9 Click Advanced
#10 Click on the edit button next the VC that is enabled
#11 What is/are the DNS Servers set to?
#12 Do you have your own RJ-45 WAN port router connected behind your Westell?
For example the Linksys WRT54G.
#13 If so to my last question: Are all of the computers behind your own RJ-45 WAN port router?
