Chris,
It is nearly always the router. They lose the connection then don't
want to connect again. Power the router down wait a min. and power
up. Or buy a new router. I'm on my third. I don't have DSL but it
is the same type connection. Some of them work really well others
don't.
Best regards,
Jimmy Snowden
