You're not alone.  I get the same with the Internal Version, only I get
to stay on for around ten minutes, then the line doesn't drop, it just
freezes (there are still screeches on the line if I listen in).  I think
there is some new software due to be installed at Demon's end soon.  I
hope this sorts it out.
