Hi

I have a DSL connection from Verizon, use WinXP, have a D-Link (Dir655) wireless router and my modem is Model 6100 from Westell.
Generally I have no problems with my DSL connection at all, but EVERYTIME when thunderstorms start to form up in my area. my DSL connection starts to break up frequently.
I already contacted Verizon, but so far they were not able to help me with this issue. How can a DSL connection be weather dependend? Should that even happen now?
Any help and suggestions are appreciated.

DSL can most certainly be weather dependent, and I'll bet money that this is a Verizon issue. Your connection is coming to you on old copper lines, and any breach of insulation will allow things to get banned and cause problems. This is not an uncommon issue.
