That was what I did and the phone company assured me that my phone lines are okay.

Me: Hello,my dsl connection did not get any better.

TS: Okay,let me get some data and run a test for you.

Me: Oh, I already did and the results showed that I should get a tech support.

TS: Alright then, I would get an alternative phone number just in case we are disconnected.

Me: 1234567

TS: I will just have to check on this and am afraid you have to hang up. I will call you when I am done.

Me: Okay

After a few hours, he called saying that the problem is fixed.

TS: It seemed that there was a repair done in your area and your line was affected. I will put you in 24 hour watch. Do call this direct number. If you use the trunk line, you might be directed to India.

After 2 days, the problem came back. The questions-and-answers-and-directions followed the same pattern as in the previous conversations with the TS. problem solved according to them.

Three days after, the problem was back. I lost the direct line for maintenance. It was in the post-it-note.
