Network disconnect insights

After yesterday's power failure, I noticed that my wireless Internet connection was no longer doing any cell hopping, to the point that I started looking at my reporting software. It took over 24 hours before it started again:

Oct 28 09:02:51 nerd-gw ppp[1679]: tun0: IPCP: myaddr 118.209.12.68 hisaddr = 10.1.0.1
...
Oct 29 09:14:52 nerd-gw fstats: +CGREG  1  81E3  8FC8F2E

And then, of course, I had another remote disconnect:

Oct 29 16:52:14 nerd-gw ppp[1679]: tun0: LCP: deflink: RecvTerminateReq(3) state = Opened
Oct 29 16:52:14 nerd-gw ppp[1679]: tun0: LCP: deflink: LayerDown
Oct 29 16:52:14 nerd-gw ppp[1679]: tun0: LCP: deflink: SendTerminateAck(3) state = Opened
Oct 29 16:52:14 nerd-gw ppp[1679]: tun0: LCP: deflink: State change Opened --> Stopping

Roll on the radiation tower! It must be time for VCAT to deal with Wendy's complaint.
