Lets say for a day or 2 i didn't have any problems with my DSL modem constantly getting disconnected and stating "Local Connection 3, Cable is Unplugged" But ever since a small storm one day, then a somewhat bigger storm the next day. I am constantly getting disconnected and on top of that i get Static or a loud Static noise on my phone. We have only been living here for 2 weeks and the phone has been grounded(which got uncovered during the rain storm) and hooked up for like a week, and we have only have had DSL for just as long as we have had the phones hooked up. I have called Embarq and they will be here on Tuesday. I also got little ringing in the background. All the filters are hooked up. What do you think might be causing it. Also i am not using a wireless router, i am only using one computer. Even when i hook the phone straight up to the jack or even connect a phone straight up to the box outside, i still get that loud Static sound over the phone.

find your outside box take the red and green wire off and put them back on. It seems they need reset.
