The technicians definitely have log access, I'm told as much that the
my disconnection
was observed from the hub end through the log. The tech, however, was
at wit-end as
to why the line was dropped. Apparently, the log they've got wasn't
specific about
from where the problem originates.

*sigh* Strangely enough my Linksys WAG54G was less specific on system
events
than access events. All I'm getting is warm start/cold start stuff,
none of those
connection and disconnection event. On the DLink DSL500T things are
more specific.
But not by much, from my end all I see is a message stating that
connection
is terminated and reconnection starts.

Wiring is obviously suspect as the current set up makes use of basic
4-wire phone
line. Still, over a 512K line, I don't see how this could be a major
concern. Besides,
the other line, with feed from another DSL provider, runs on the same
sort of copper,
without the connection problem. Finally, the regularity of drop
connection makes
it unlikely to be caused by some sort of noises. I realize that the
interval isn't exactly
15 minutes, but it's darned close. Can't see how a noise-related
problem could
cause disconnection that runs that regular. Thanks for the help all the
same though.

Later...
