[ale] Telocity DSL and pump

[Paul D. Manno]

Just for another data point (JFADP?)

In my case, the (Telocity) DSL box sits in the same room as a dimmed 
halogen lamp, directly under a 900 Mhz phone, within 2 feet of a monitor, 
within a foot from a UPS device, inches from a CPU and a network switch 
and yet typically runs (1507320 bps) fine somewhere between 5 hours and 
3 weeks without need for a reset - which the X-10 *appliance* module does.

So, YAMMV.
