Hi all, wondering if anyone has come across this and knows how to fix it.

I have a Cisco 887VA at home, hooked up to a BT supplied VDSL line (cabinet
at end of street), what I believe is called "fibre", but my ISP is Zen.

Ive noticed that very consistently after about a week (7-8 days),
forwarding partially breaks in some way. Im not sure if it is the Cisco or
something somewhere else, but I didnt have the same issue with the Zen
supplied FritzBox, so seems coincidental that it is the Cisco...

The biggest thing I have noticed is that DNS seems to break. e.g. I could
have an audio stream playing, and it will continue to stream just fine, but
you wont be able to browse or resolve any other hostnames. I can also still
ping anything by IP just fine.

I have a friend that is working for a managed service provider who has an
installed base of these routers and says they are also working on much the
same issue.

If anyone has any suggestions, Im all ears!

Thanks
Tom
