This was my problem too (Virgin) and the reason I changed to bethere just before Christmas. I was getting more and more routing failures during/after heavy JOSM usage especially which would lock me out (usually for 30 mins or so) from all JANET domains. Since changing ISP I have had no problems. Virgin also appeared to be closing off other port addresses so that I was getting increasing problems routing back to some ports on my home network via the net.
