Hi, Are you with BT? if you are i think it is something to do with their soppy box. I have the same problem but they - BT say it falls within their 'parameters'. It does help if you reset it though - little grey button on the back of box. there is test you can do online with BT sorry deleted the site now but should be easy enough to find.
