[QUOTE="MrGale, post: 261801, member: 4568"] whenever a lightning storm gets close, UNPLUG yer modem from the wall socket fer the phone line....best defense. i used to teach computer sciences at a tech college, and they have all kinds of stuff like surge suppressors, but hells bells, that 30 million volts just went three miles with no conductor to carry it....guess 1/32 of an inch at a set of thermal contacts isn't going to bother it much..... get a V.90-92 itu modem for 30-40 bucks and keep a spare if you can.
