    I get similar problems.
    During business hours it all works but in the evening, I get disconnected and my modem resyncs. This happens randomly five or six times over a three hour period and is particularly annoying if you connect to any kind of gaming or VoIP system.

    The logs at http://dslstats.eircom.net confirm that I get many IP addresses.

    eircom support suggested I upgrade my Netopia (but I use a SMC 7401 v2).

    They have also suggested I get a fixed IP address but that costs €50.

    I'm waiting for a response from eircom suppotr.
