Is this on the 21CN trial?  I've been seeing something similar off of the trial.  Sync stays up, but the PPP connection disappears.

Hi Pete,
I'm seeing a coupler of connection drops from you this morning.  Is that you manually rebooting your router?
Prior to this, you were solidly connected for 2 days.

Re: had a few internet drops...

I suppose different lines cope differently , i had alot problem with this unit mainly the snr jumping up and down like a yoyo (hence my recent problems) , but after reading other forums about this hardware i think i may have had a duff one  :P, but in saying that i still think the DGN2000 is far superior with my 54dB line
bluewhale , what firmware are you using BT or the SBC ?
