that sounds like an issue that you should contact SBC about.

I believe your problem is caused by the fact that you have call waiting on your phone line. Click on Start then Settings then Phone & Modem Options (or Modems), then dialing Rules, then Edit, then 'To Disable Call Waiting', then enter *70, then Apply, then Okay. this should fix your problem since when your call waiting is activated sometimes static on your line can cause problems. If that still doesn't work I recommend Modem Booster. You can get a shareware verion at...

...This will tweak a number of your modem settings and takes an hour or so to do so. Although it's main purpose is to make your modem faster and you may not need this w/ DSL, it should help w/ the stability of your modem as well. From what I've heard you can even delete it after you've used it for a while and you'll still be left w/ an improved modem. Also check out this website...
