I have the Westell 6100 DSL modem, and the connection is terrible. It constantly cuts out, not working at all and giving me black pages in Internet Explorer. I have called verizon several times, and when I finally get an actual person on the phone.......I still end up not getting results in the long run. I am guessing that the problem may be in my computer...... I use Limewire for sharing, and it says that I have a firewall up, but I have no idea where it is, or how to shut it down. Could it be that? Well, anyhoo.... I posted my test results, and I may as well have dial-up. Can someone please help!?!?
