Broadband dropouts for some weeks.

Hi, we have had for some years a pretty stable ADSL connection, with on a good day speeds up to 10Mps. For the past few weeks, we are suffering dropouts. Internet freezes for 30 seconds or more on all devices. Also, I upload regularly to Mediafire legitimately shared music(Grateful Dead). Always slow, as our upload speeds are very low - but reliable. Now I can only upload by splitting files and doing multiple uploads. Otherwise I get a "Network timeout" failure.
Am thinking of replacing the router with an industry standard one, but am also wondering whether we have a problem on the line?
Anyone?

No. All devices - 1 direct ethenet, one ethernet powerline, one wireless. The latter I have to fix with the Windows troubleshooter say every other day at the moment; works for a day or so then fails. Usually says the IP config is invalid, which implies it's been changed - which it hasn't. Can you test the modem?

Upload just failed (as previously described). Has to be restarted. Going for maybe 45 mins? I get these all the time now, having only rarely seen this before the trouble started.
