New Plusnet user-- broadband disconnects several times a day

Hi, I switched to Plusnet a week ago. Since then my broadband connection has been dropping at least twice a day, for maybe five minutes at a time. ADSL stays up, it's just the PPP connection that drops.

I'm on the same phone line as always, and have had several ISPs over the years with no major problems.

The log on my router shows this when disconnect/reconnect event happens (note the four minutes elapsed time, in this case):

 

10/3/2016 11:26:14> Call drop because echo reply not received in time

10/3/2016 11:26:14> SNMP TRAP 2: link down

10/3/2016 11:29:11> MPOA Link Down

10/3/2016 11:29:11> netMakeChannDial: err=-3001 rn_p=80430a14

10/3/2016 11:30:18> Last errorlog repeat 407 Times

10/3/2016 11:30:18> MPOA Link Up

10/3/2016 11:30:33> ppp_ready: ch:8044b58c, iface:803bdaa4

10/3/2016 11:30:34> SNMP TRAP 3: link up

 

When I look at the router status during the outage, it shows ADSL up ("Showtime" as it calls it) but there's no allocated IP address, it just shows 0.0.0.0 .

Our tests aren't showing any particular cause but as shown below your connection is dropping.
