Nope, just simple DSL and a land line which doesn't even have long
distance, we use cellphones for that.


How do you know your issue is the WiFi and not the DSL.
If you connect a computer via Ethernet directly to the router, does it
work?

I had many intermittent issues with DSL caused by many kinds of electrical
interference between me and the central office. DSL used to go out in the
evening when the streets lights all fired up.

If you have several laptops (or even a printer on the WiFi) you can ping
between devices to check if the WiFi is communicating, without having to
have the DSL working. So, you can identify which part of the network is
out.
