My Internet connection went down Friday afternoon.  My ISP was able to do a 
remote check of my cable modem and said that it was indicating "weak signal".  
It looks like a service tech won't show up until Monday afternoon (lousy 
service, but the alternative provider is probably no better), but in the 
meantime, my connection mysteriously reappeared this morning at around 0500 
EDT.  So, it's that most annoying of problems, an intermittent, presumably in 
the cable drop outside the house (I suspect rodents).  So, all bets are off 
as far as how long it will keep working, and whether a permanent fix is in 
the offing.  Doesn't help that there is a lot of heavy rain headed our way in 
the next few days...

In any case, there are no plans to close the service, but don't be surprised 
if it disappears from time to time.  :-(
