I would sugest you have the phone company run a stress test to check out
both ends of the circuit. A Remote loopback on the port in question
followed with an All 1's or 511 BERT would also work. Check performance
registers for the past 24 hours. You need to first assure that the
channels assigned to DSU's data port are running error free. The next
step would be to run a DTLB from the DSU to the router. The router must
have HDLC encap working fo the router to see the loopback. The router
should be able to see the loopback and the same number of RX frames as
TX frames. I am assuming the Morningstar is not an edge router. 

If the DTLB passes, your router is misconfigured. If it fails, the DSU
port or the router port is bad or misconfigured. You can figure this out
by swapping ports.You may also have a bad cable. Good luck!
