I go along with the General, the issue is on your side of the connection now. Previously it was that the upstream power levels were too high, those are now fine.

Agreed.
Further indication of this above given by the fact that "Repairing" in Windows solves the issue temporarily, the Repair process in Windows basically does a DHCP renew, it cannot influence the VM connection in any way. It
only repairs the local network connection to the router.

Now if you'd had told us this to begin with we'd have been able to figure out that the problem had nothing to do with VM all along

It is changing various network settings in Windows and hoping it will fix the issue. The fact that your PC is detecting the complete loss of your network connection to the shub (and not the internet) and the shub isn't dropping it's wan (internet) connection proves this. If you don't believe me, look at your router the next time your connection drops and you'll see.

Dammit, you beat me to it
Guess we're even now
Either way, the symptoms point to packet loss, and there's no packet loss from the router to the internet so that suggests somethings bust with his LAN connection.
