What I had, especially in OS X, was modem disconnect during lengthy downloads - usually about 45 minutes into the process.
I tried external modems, I tried a modem "program" that was supposed to be faster and more efficient, and I even had my phone company install another line because of all the "noise" - none of which helped. Finally, in disgust, I went to cable and have had no problems since. More expensive, yes, but far less frustrating. The download speed is really great.
