I can say this for sure. Being in modem mode will not cause lost packets provided that your ASUS router doesn't block pings (which it didn't in the morning).

It's wortth checking your Virgin IP address when this happens - to make sure that when it happens it's the same IP address as before. But if VM knocked on your door and said your house was the source of noise, that noise was affecting other people's upstream; hence VM's interest in getting it fixed.

When you get the red out, what is your connection doing in termns of usability?

Has he fixed it? Is there any electrically noisy house equipment that comes on in the morning?

Your DS power shouldn't vary by more tah 1 dBmv in current weather conditions - but your local street cab could be cooking - and anything can happen then during the hot part of the day. Does the cab lie in the sun from 10:00 onwards?
