Melted Modems A friend who reps for some MidWestern firm gave me a Anti-Surge device and I had an electrician install it. It goes on the feed coming into the house. Essentially, the design is to lop the spikes caused by electrical storms and so forth. I think it sells for a couple of hundred dollars. Some utilities provide it and will install it for you, but then you pay a monthly charge which, over time, will cost you more. Anyway, coupled with an UPS, I have not had any problems since it was installed. I am aware that, like everything else in Texas, your electrical storms are far grander than ours here on the East Coast.
