Hi everyone,

I'm having a problem with a customer's internet connection frequently dropping.

I've run a show dsl int atm0 which I have shown below.

Capacity is at 100%- I've read somewhere that that's the occupancy on the line of your router, and it should be much lower.

I've upgraded the firmware from 3 (something) to 4.0.18 which has stabilised it a bit, but its still dropping out, just not as often. Could someone perhaps help me understand what the various stats below mean, and whether anything else looks 'odd'? Also what would you generally recommend to help with the capacity?

I've seen that some people have spoken to their ISPs but they are talking about changing ADSL profiles which I'm not too sure about.

Thanks in advance
