I have another modem, but this has been fine for the last 24 hours. I will keep checking and see how many days it takes to change but at the moment the noise margin is stable.

The other modem is USB and as I turn off my PC at night it wouldnt really be much use especially if the router only shows signs of drop off after a few days.

I'll keep an eye on it and if it means with Max I need to resync the router every 7 days or whatever then its not much of a problem.

Thanks for all the advice so far. Really interesting discussion, always like finding out new bits of info.
