Kind Regards The thing I'd be asking my self if it happens EVERY day at the SAME is what is happening in the office or locally at that time. Is somebody switching on another piece of equipment between 2 and 4 ? Are any lights on a timer ? Can you plug the fax into another line temp ?? |

I had very similar problems when I was with BTO and using the crappy frog modem. It took many irate phone calls to BTO to get an engineer round. The engineer as a last resort replaced the modem, and that sorted out that problem. Getting a router and getting away from BTO has helped even more. Andrew. |

Yopu could be on the right track here as excessive RF can & does cause DSL circuits to drop synch, even things like Xmas lights can create this problem. Check to see if _any_ local electrical equipment is switching on at that time... -- B-) Life is pain..... Deal with it!! |
