I got thinking about this and am finding it a little weird that my ata so far out here in left field (west of Seattle) can hold a constant connection (ie no drops or lack of registration according to my logs except for the outage) to a Texas area server and yet there seem to be a number that see registration problems.
So my thoughts are that something along the route to the registration servers is part of the issue.
Im wondering what internet connectivity those that intermittently drop are using. Cable, DSL PPPoE, DSL PPPoA, Wireless, ect...
The ata's should automatically reconnect so network issues should not be so devistating. The lack of re-registration is not what Im talking about here though. Its the fact that some stay connected while others have hiccups...
Sometimes chatter like this helps to lead those looking in the right direction. (we do this at our company all the time) :)
Its pretty important for everyone to know that sometimes connections along the way fail and get busy, and in the process of the reroute, your gonna see packet loss.
Maybe this is all moot but just thinking...
