More problems

I've been on Central for as long as I can remember. I will say that my service has been very flaky recently. I have to reboot my PAP2 at least every other day, now. Sometimes daily.

So now my question is: What makes yours (and select others) connectivity flaky, and mine (and select others) not?

I would like to see a comparison of average minutes per month for those having intermittent problems vs. those not seeing any problems. Obviously, losing registration would happen to both heavy and light users, but what about other call issues.

When your spouse borders on the soft max of minutes most months, she is going to expose any intermittent issues much more often than someone using 300 minutes a month. Some people probably go entire days without using the service, but I know for a fact that never happens here. Just throwing that out here.

Probably bad luck and too much free time to allow me to notice.

My wife is a moderate to heavy user. Some how, she notices whenever anything happens to the service. The adapter is at the bottom/front of our TV console (in plain sight) which sits in the family room, which is right off the kitchen. Whenever I'm home, I'm always glancing at it to make sure all 4 lights are on. I also monitor the webpage status of the PAP2T from work. I can just as easily fire up my PAP2T perl script which monitors the connectivity every x minutes, but until I find a need to do so, I probably won't.

I just checked, both lines online, PAP2T up for 11 days. (We had a power outage 11 days ago)
