ADSL Connection Problems.
Some time ago I upgraded my ADSL to ADSL Max. This worked very well indeed for quite a long time. However, several months ago I noticed that my Zyxel 660H D1 router kept disconnecting, sometimes for several minutes. I have tried all the usual things like disconnecting everything else on the phone line. My router is already plugged into BT's master socket, so it isn't dodgy internal wiring and I have tried a Netgear router which showed the same symptoms. [[%5B%5Bhttp://www.wizards.co.uk][Wizards]] my ISP were very helpful, but we couldn't really pin down the problem. The next step would be to get BT to test the line. However, if they can't find a fault they charge you £169 for the privilege of testing your line. Given that the fault was intermittent, it's quite likely that they wouldn't find anything wrong.
