Hi. I'm having broadband problems (I have 152MB or whatever it's called)

It seems sometimes that my broadband works perfectly right until I start to use it. Every few minutes it seems to cut off. On my SH2. the middle icon will disappear and the fourth one down (double-headed arrow) will switch from blue steady to green flashing. Sometimes it will recover on its own - the green arrow will be steady and the blue tick will flash like mad, then they'll settle down as blue and steadyish. More frequently, the green will go steady, the blue tick will flash a few times and then disappear and the green arrow will flash like mad. This will keep repeating. When it can't "lock on" I normally have to reboot the hub.
I've had to disconnect the input cable from the splitter and connect it directly to the hub. This gives me more of a chance to be connected for a while; via the splitter it hardly ever managed a connection.
If I'm doing something else offline (watching freeview or having a meal) I keep an eye on it - it seems to be a steady connection. And them when when I try to go online it'll suddenly cut off again.
I can keep an eye on it via the thinkbroadband site on my mobile - it'll be a perfect connection for most of the afternoon and suddenly cut off as soon as I switch on my computer.
Here's today's graph. Cam you guess what time I started to use it this evening?
