Replaced modem but again same problem

Hi, I do not know what to do.

When I switched to werizon DSL internet the first two months the internet was OK, but after the light for the internet on my modem- westell 7500 started to turn red, and some times just off color. Initially the switch off/on helped but after some time the internet was not available in the most of the time. I called several times to the technical support but after hours, talking and switching...the problem stayed the same. In the end, we decided to replace the modem, BUT here after 1 week the internet is again almost not available. I tried to connect with another modem (from friend with werizon internet modem (the model is westell 6100F) and after few minutes the light for the internet turned off. I do not know what it can be?! If it helpful, we have home phone connected with werizon that works well.

Can any body help?

Thanks.

Ok, we can try it this way..

I found some screens of this modem.

http://www.lava.net/support/Westell_2200_DSL_Modem_Installation_Guide

If your modem screens, look like that go to the trouble shootinglink.

In there, there should be something about modem stats..

The screen that you see may look something like the screens at the following URL

I asked you to post your modem stats not the make and model of your modem. The modem stats show what the download and upload speeds of your modem are currently at.

I have the same or similar issue. I have had 4 Verizon technicians out, I have been on the phone for over 8 hours with tech support. They sent me a new modem today and still the same issue. 

The modem is a westell 7500, If i go into the modem and see the down/up speed it says 864/160. However my connection is super slow. Speedtests at  infospeed.verizon.net, speedtest.net, and speakeasy all come back with about the same result, somewhere between 130 - 220 download and 130 upload.

I thought it may have something to do with my computer settings, but it is not the case. I have deleted any programs that I didn't need (i even had a computer share with a verizon technician and he couldn't do anything).  If i connect to my neighbors connection it goes super fast and the speed tests come back with resuls at 1865/864.

Please help!Man Mad
