Program to Log ADSL Disconnects?

May 3, 2005 6:56PM PDT

Hi, Anybody know of a program to install on XP SP1a that will log disconnects of my DSL provider thru my ZA Pro Firewall and Linksys BEFSR41 router? I found one that will read to my NIC, another that will read to the Firewall, another that will log to the router, but NONE yet that will log when my DSL service starts and stops, as it frequently does. The WAN light on the Lucent Cell-Pipe blinks, and the internet stops, for a couple of minutes or longer, then connects again. Some days so bad that I get 12 hours of service only. When I claim a rebate to this arrogant DSL monopoly, they say, Oh, yeah? Prove it! So I am looking for a program that will Log the interrupts so that I can claim a rebate for service not delivered. Thanks for any ideas you have.
