Northern VA Connection Issues?

Before I go through a lot of trouble shooting processes, I wanted to see if anyone else has been experiencing fios internet issues in Northern VA (Chantilly) the last week or so.  I lose the internet connection several times a day.  The loose seems to vary from a couple seconds and get automatically re-connected to a complete loose and I have to reboot the router to get the connection back.  The speed also seems to fluctuate widely from minute to minute.  As I said I have not started to document any of this – but here is some basic info.

  • I connect to Verizon on 173.73.139.148 – I have tried to release and renew the connection and it always seems to connect back to that
  • I have the actiontec MI424WR-GEN2 router
  • I have multiple devices (wired and wire-less).  I have the problem connecting to the internet – all the devices seem to be able to connect to my home network easy enough – they just can’t get out when this happens.

Here are the last couple of lines in the router log…  I have no idea what these mean
