I am curious to know when the 6 hours were were from and to
I connected to my site around mid day a couple of times

I came home around 5:00 pm and found i could not bring up any internet
sites. At first I though it was a DNS lookup problem but quickly found that
I could not ping anything either.

After checking the M10 logs and noticed pages of this
pity the M10 does not have the ability to sync its time from something.

I had also installed MRTG recently and the graph showed this
(see attachment) which indicated that something happened around 15:00 and
continued until I rebooted the M10 just after 17:00.
I guess it may have been when the M10 noticed that something was wrong.
