As an added datapoint, I didn't experience the micro outages until
after the
G.DMT upgrade of the exchanges. This is not saying that the service
was
perfect before... experienced outages of several days earlier. Unless
someone's e.g. put up an amateur radio station beaming right at my
phone
lines, I am a bit sceptical about the line noise theory.

This is probably going around in circles to a discussion a few days
ago, but
it could be that they were going unnoticed. The upgrade of the
exchanges
would have also meant you would be using a different DSL modem with
probably a different implementation of their layer one, two and three
code.
Possibly the M10/11 was more resillient to these cell lock problems
than
the standard-issue M(w)1122's and didn't start ripping NAT sessions
down
like there's no tomorrow.

Also, if there really is major interference, strong enough to drown out
the
ADSL signal, surely it would be a) measurable; b) reported by many
more
users in the same area and c) last for longer than just a few seconds
at the
time?
