We have a D-link DSL 501, which worked sweet as with maybe one disconnection for over a year.
Then smellycom changed their (nokia I think) old hardware to new Alcatel stuff at the exchanges, and ever since then we've had issues with it disconnecting and needing powering down at least once a week, despite the latest firmware upgrade, etc. There is an internal memo floating around (which I have seen!) about problems with incompatibilities between customers with D-link and the Alcatel stuff. Sorry this ain't entirely Linux related, but it may be of use to one of you. Advice/sympathy welcome. Cheers Steve
