Longest your internet has been down

[HotelUser]

What is the longest time your internet has been down because your ISP did something wrong. Not because you had to move houses or switch ISPs or something, but because your ISP couldn't fix something fast enough, etc.

Thus far with my ISP Bell, my internet has been down for over 24 hours now so I've been tethering.

Like over a week with virgin media and then it came back and then broke for like another week. Basically all students use them around here and everyone was having problems.

Talktalk has gone down randomly for 24-48 hrs too.
so annoying

~3 days. Problem with Virgin Media overloading the area AFAIK and then denying all fault over the phone and telling me it was a problem with my setup :S.

3months in 2010 with AOL.
We use BT for other things and apparantly BT canceled our aol thingy when they shouldn't of and they all had a big fall out

My mum raged down the phone and screamed at the simple people :3

2 weeks with Virgin Media as they kept wrongly diagnosing the problem wrong and saying it was due to engineering work in the area when it was my fault for various reasons

It was a very difficult 2 weeks especially as tethering was so unreliable at the time, thankfully I'm not as dependent on the internet these days and with smartphones with 3G capabilities I doubt it'd be such a problem if it were to happen again.

Longest my internet has been down was about 5 days lol. Was a pain as I had many projects to be done and information from the internet was needed. :| My dad did manage to bring something back pretty soon to get internet whilst we waited for the problem to be solved.
