Well, since you have written to this mailing list, I assume you want
to use Wireshark to figure out what's going on. What I think you
should do is to
- capture packets with a ring buffer and without live update of the
packet list.
- wait until you face the problem and then stop the capture (if at the
point of the problem the capture doesn't stop automatically with an
error).
- save the capture.

If the capture does stop with an error at the point of the problem, it
means something causes the interface towards the ISP physically goes
down (you haven't mentioned what kind of connection you have to the
ISP). That could indicate some kind of a session timer or something
like that... not sure.

If the capture continues while there is a problem, then once you have
stopped and saved the capture you need to analyze it to see what might
be going wrong... I think a good place to start would be to find a lot
of frames at more or less the same time with TCP resets (display
filter tcp.flags.reset==set). Once you find a clump of packets with
this at around the same time as you saw the connections going down,
clear the display filter and then search upwards in the packet list to
see if there was something suspicious.

Perhaps someone else has more suggestions.

Abhik.
