I have actually gotten into the MDC page before and could see all the settings, including that there are indeed periodic retrains, but maybe once a day, not every 5-15mins like I am exeriencing. If not for ddns daemon I wouldn't even be able to connect to the thing remotely at all. Maybe it's just their plan to convince you to pay the extra price for a static IP :-)

I would be curious if your relative capacity is too high or if your dropping sync. Unfortunately with qwest you cant go in to the backend where all the cool toys are but my gusee if you call them you will see it is a service or sync issue.

If so, do you have the same crazy DHCP lease schedule that I'm
experiencing at a particular site? I don't know what the exact lease
time is, except that at least every 15 minutes I get a new IP. It is
really annoying as when I ssh into a server that is behind this link, I
have a very short period of time before my connection gets nuked when it
changes IPs. There are also secure credit-card transactions happening
over this link, so I have to wonder what happens if the IP changes in
the middle of of a transaction :(
