thanks for the reply

I have changed the settings ... I`ll see how it goes for a couple days

Hi, did changing this setting solve your problem? I've had a similar problem with this model, it's working now, but seems to drop connection every couple of days & then can take up to a day to re-establish. Turning it off for a while doesn't solve it. Thanks,

try changing the DSL settings to G.dmt Annex A had the same problem and picked this up from a Google search so far rock solid on 2.4 and 5.0 with no drop outs

maybe you set "connect on demand" on your 8980,so that Internet will drop out from time to time.
You can configure it in 8980"s web management interface:network->wan settings->add,choose connection type "PPPOE",choose "always on",and reconfigure the parameters your ISP provides,save.
That means you have dialed again。
hope this can help you
