BT Voyager 2110 periodically losing connection

But in the past couple of weeks it's been happening regularly - about once or twice a day, though sometimes it might be OK for a day or two. But now when I lose the connection it doesn't come back unless I switch the router off and on. So far that always does the trick but it is annoying. Any ideas?
I notice that this model has been discontinued for a while now. I don't mind replacing it if it's a router fault but I want to be sure first.

When it drops immediately pick up the phone a listen to see if there is any noise on the line (press a single digit to stop the dial tone).

@kevmac - If you ask Plusnet nicely they will send you a router for just the £4.99 P&P cost. As long as you stay for 12 months the router is free. It is worth replacing the microfilters as well. They can fail, and are cheap enough to replace.

Anyway, now that I've posted again I'm sure it's only a matter of time before it disconnects again!
Update: well, it happened again not long after posting. I was watching a YouTube video at the time, though I did reach the end.
@jelv, "When it drops immediately pick up the phone a listen to see if there is any noise on the line (press a single digit to stop the dial tone)."
No line noise. I'll try some new micro filters first.

My problem doesn't seem to be directly related to phone calls though. I've not been able to identify a pattern.
Btw, mozzy, what make is your new router? Is it still BT?

Quote from: Denzil A the risk of heading off-topic, virtually all electronic components these use lead-free solder to comply with the EU ROHS directive which restricts use of toxic substances. Lead free solders do need higher temperatures, but these should be within the reach of the average iron.
Thanks for that Denzil! I am of the vintage of small Solon irons and Ersin Multicore, so did not know of these newfangled matters. We live and mostly learn!
Regards,
Colin
