	Strange:

	I know in my area, there are two service providers that use sprint
	as there 57.6k provider services (symnet/supernet).  I have
	yet to see either of them "down" because of "router" problems. 
	I have seen problems with one (supernet) because of administration
	problems,  but never "router" problmes.   I will have to inquire
	about this.. 

	Maybe your provider is badly admin'ed?
