http://www.wired.com/gadgets/miscellaneous/magazine/17-10/ts_burningquestionIf I recall correctly, the worst was usually a long, hard cold rain (hey we're in Wisconsin) after which people who had been getting solidly high speed modem connects would see a somewhat slower speed.
Matches my story exactly. I once had an ADSL connection which, on dry periods, synced at the maximum of 8Mbps and when it had rained for a day this would drop to about 6Mbps. It always worked though, the SNR just went up. I regularly rebooted the modem to make it retrain. An engineer from the telephone company came to check the wiring but couldn't find anything that would constitute replacing the line or something less drastic... Regards, -Sndr.
