OK, so "prove" is not the right word. I'm looking for something I can
do to "convince" my ISP that they need to look closer at their server.
Logic doesn't seem to work on them. 
Perhaps there is some on-line test to put a router through its paces?

The other problem I've been having is that my throughput speed drops
from ~27000kbps to ~15000 and when I reboot the router it goes back to
the higher number

Well I've just noticed that the router firmware could do with upgrading
so I'm going offline to do that. Wish me luck.
