No intention (or desire) to hijack your thread, but, based on our experience last week, with our ADSL being down, for most of 3 days, I hope you will look at the idea of switching away from ADSL, if HSDPA is available to your location. Or, having HSDPA as an alternate access. Not being dependent on cables, etc., has a lot of strong points. If it goes down, it is either at your location, a nearby repeater, or their base. Very easy to troubleshoot!
