Intermittent Connection

Hi Jeff,

I took a look at your line and current line readings. I am showing that you are in sync at the full rate without any indication of line issues. You indicated in your post that you are dropping packets. Are you pinging your gateway to test the connection or where are you pinging to determine that you are dropping packets?

Do you have to do anything to restore the service or does it just come back by itself? Does a power cycle of your DSL modem, router help? If so next time it happens can you try to power cycle one device at a time to see if that resolve the issue. (ie power cycle router first and not the modem)

DN STREAM ERRORS During the last measurement period of 30 minutes the line ran error free in the downstream direction.
UP STREAM ERRORS During the last measurement period of 30 minutes the line ran error free in the upstream direction.
DN STREAM SPEED The line is running at the maximum bit rate of 6016 kbps.
UP STREAM SPEED The line is running at the maximum bit rate of 768 kbps.
DN STREAM S/N The line noise margin is 13.0dB, which is above the target noise margin of 6.0dB.
UP STREAM S/N The line noise margin is 9.5dB, which is above the target noise margin of 6.0dB.
DN STREAM POWER The line power is at the maximum of 16.0dBm.
UP STREAM POWER The line power is 12.0dBm, which is below the maximum of 13.0dBm.

Thanks

It is intermittent, occurring about 3 to 4 times a day, lasting from 5 to 30 minutes. I either have the full rated performance, or 100% packet loss and I cannot talk to anything on the Internet. It comes back all by itself, eventually. Power cycling the modem and/or router has no effect. I substituted another router and that had no effect. The lights on the modem flicker when I ping or try to initiate a connection; they just don't seem to get through.

Today I've noticed a new pattern of symptons: existing connections are unaffected and pings work, but new connections cannot be established. Again, it corrects itself automatically after a few minutes. Again, power cycling modem/router has no effect (other than to break the established connections, of course).
