specfic time..... i have run into similar troubles.... one customer had a
burglar alarm. He didnt think about it because he discontinued the monitoring
service years ago. The burglar alarm was still connected to the phone line and
was programed to test the intergertiy of the phone line at certain times.It
tested the phone line by goin off hook, pausing then resetin. there was no
filter on the alarm. i disconnect the "unused alarm no further troubles.
  Another customer had several task scheduled in the pc he was unaware of...The
pc was not losing sync or droping the adsl connection... it was just using all
avaible resources for the other applications running in the background. things
like automatic maintaince , scan disk, defrag, check email, check for software
updates. napster access, etc etc..
 Still another customer was losing sync....everything his pool heater "fired up"
he had a brownout . The pc was on a ups but not his modem....
 My point is this.... it does not have to be a central office trouble.Could
be...but does not HAVE to be...
  call the help desk say 5pm have them take a footprint of your modem before it
fails... then at the time it fails...have them take another footprint...
 also ask them when your dynamic ip address changes.....
