There was some Planned Engineering Works overnight, as well as some again tonight, in your area - other than that, there's nothing else that we're aware of.
We're investigating a separate issue which may have been linked to you not being able to resolve some websites as shown here: http://usertools.plus.net/status/archive/1400850987.htm

Hi Chris,
I have just had another on/off moment 10 mins ago, but even the laptop i have left connected to the router via Ethernet was showing no internet access! and the computer via wifi dropped out then back on!!
Odd!! I have no experienced any issues until the last week or so

Here's your connection graph:

It looks like it could be your Wireless dropping out as you've mentioned. Would you be able to try a different Wireless Channel at all? Perhaps 1,6 or 12?

if it was the wireless then the laptop wouldnt of lost connection via ethernet

Your connection looks to be back up now, let us know if you notice any further oddities.

I have changed channel to see if that helps!! Seems neighbours are on the same channel?? if that matters
