We're HFC. The drop outs have occurred since day 1 of having the NBN installed and the frequency hasn't changed, so that suggests it not something slowly degrading but something buggered up the whole time. The PRTG monitor is working well and accumulating a history of drop-outs. It's an impressive product and it's monstrous overkill for a single 1-minute interval pinger, but I'll let it run for a few weeks to get enough stats to give to Telstra. *GK* >
