Since you have an FT100s, what does it's performance monitoring =
report to you? This is going to tell you immediately if there is =
trouble on the line or not. Also, what lights are lit on the HDSL =
unit when it's normal, when it locks up?=20
What makes you think it's a bad ground?
Do you have an inside terminal? is it grounded good? is the HDSL =
casing grounded?=20
Jake brings up a good point about the water. You could have a =
swinging ground or tip-ring short on either loop1 or loop2 of the =
HDSL. The unit should report this in it's performance montitoring =
also.=20
Check performance monitoring in the CSU, if you see some errors =
when this happens, write down what you get, crc's bipolar's, etc. =
Then call the telco and ask to have performance monitoring pulled =
from the HDSL unit and tell them what you are seeing specifically =
when this happens.=20
Remember Kyle's T-1 rule of thumb - Only Dumb People Buy Dumb =
CSU's :-)
