In my experience (and I've been building/upgrading/repairing PCs for many,
many years) most problems are not with the ISP but rather are with the sysop
and/or some update or other software that's just been installed and/or a
hardware fault, and can be sorted locally.

My experience is exactly the reverse. I don't make silly mistakes, so if my
connection fails, it's NOT down to me.

Having an ISP whose tech support's first language is ENGLISH is worthwhile.
