Fios service has been dropping intermittently for more than a year, I had Tech's come out (cost me $$), equipment replaces and too many to count calls , emails and chats (which the last one today dropped due to connectivity issues)  what a crooked orginization this is.. They degrade your service to entice you to upgrade!  Who wants to upgrade grappy service?

I've had good luck with using twitter @verizonsupport.

This is generally a user supported board.

What type of upgrades are they suggesting that could fix your problem?

They recommend I upgrade the internet plan to 150/65 Mbps, the price differnec from my (top of the list at the time) 75/65 Mbps for only,.... $50 more a month!  rep claims "you'll get blazing fast speed for the devices that you are using to access internet AND you'll experience difference of the upgrade within 30 minutes of placing the on line order!"....  he goes on to suggest, "or you can ge the upgrade of your wireless router - the upgraded FIOS Advanced Wifi router is for a ONE TIME charge of $99.99 which I'll be able to assist you PAY in 3 monthly installments of $33.33/mo!, you'll get GREATER SIGNAL reachability (code for will stop degrading my signal) with faster connection speed up to 3 times for wireless devises!, the GREAT thing is you don't need a technician visit for the installation!"
