My IDNet connection has gone slow and jittery again. I was away at a wedding but on Saturday it went wobbly.

Today (after powering off my router for 20 minutes):

..the jitter has gone and all is well.
What's rather curious is the pattern of dates I'm seeing:
* First occurrence - June 19th.
* Second occurrence - August 19th.
* Third occurrence - October 19th.
My connection went live April 16th and isn't there something about taking 3 days for a new connection to settle? Now I've been in this game long enough to know that coincidences happen but the above pattern seems very suspicious to me. Basically every two months my connection develops a bad case of the jitters and speeds struggle to get above 30Mb/s (instead of being a steady 76Mb/s).
Any thoughts? Anyone know of any aspect of FTTC that occurs on a bi-monthly basis?
