howdy, did you ever get this resolved? if not, could you kindly ask a
DSL support tech to get the people that own the line to watch it while
your connection fails? i agree that it's probably something hinky on
the isp end, since chances are pretty good (if it's like where i
worked) that your dsl connection is even hooked up to the same
equipment at the telco. i remember that we had a hell of a time
getting people on Macs to stay connected, even though the Windows port
of the same software worked like a charm.

later,
