The problem is that the internet connection is being dropped
intermittently, usually for 20-30 seconds, but sometimes for a few
minutes. It may not be the Fritzbox that's causing it, but I wasn't
aware of a similar problem with the previous modem/router.
It's not really a problem for normal internet access, but it always
seems to happen during a VOIP call, resulting in a dropped line.
I'm currently using a different modem/router to try and find out if it
is the Fritzbox or another problem.
