So a final update on this if anyone is searching on the web and runs
into this problem.

After 24 hours the same issues returned so back to square one. After a
bit of digging around on the web it appears that the powerline adaptors
I use can be prone to going off line at random. Our house was rewired
about 15 years ago and the main breaker board is younger than this so
I'm inclined to be believe it's the powerline. They are TPLink units TL
PA4020P and  TL PA4010P. I updated firmware on both of them, turned off
power saving mode on both, reset the router and modem and still got
random cutting out. So out they came, super long ethernet cable back in,
another reset of router / modem and Touch and, lo and behold, sonic joy
:) 

So I let the sytem run like this for 48 hours and got zero interruptions
or drop outs so it's definitely our wiring or the powerlines. After
umming and aahing and seeking advice I thought I'd try wifi for a bit
rather than fork out yet more money on powerlines - may well try Devolo
in the future. So I fiddled around with the router position as best I
could - it wasn't ideal to start with - and have been running the Touch
on wifi for about a week now with no issues at all.

So the long and short - Ethernet, ethernet, ethernet. :)
