You might want to take a look at

doesn't completely rule out the modem, but there's a very good chance it is
Virgin.

Not sure if it has anything to do with your problems but I was experiencing
continual disconnections and after fighting with my ISP for 2 months, they
eventually got BT out and it turned out that the noise was high on my line.
They have now done a lift and shift and put me on a new card in the exchange
and everything is fine since.......... fingers crossed. So if your problem
continues, stick your ground and get it checked out by BT.

Thanks for that link.
The threads make very interesting reading for anybody with Virgin.
I've been logging IP address and signal level data for the last week.
My IP address has changed 8 times in the last week. Which seems
unusual for a always on SAR715. The IPs I've been getting do not
seem sticky in any way.
This made me wonder.
How dynamic can dynamic IPs get ?
