I have a BT OpenWorld (5 Static IPs) ADSL connection at work that has been 
down once since July last year and that was in August last year. So thats 11 
months uptime. We have a PlusNet ADSL (1 Static IP) connection at another 
branch which conks out every couple of weeks for no apparent reason. Reset 
the router and all is usually alright. Read from that what  you will. Maybe 
the DLink router on the PlusNet connection is dodgy?
