1. I'm guessing that the errors relate to the modem attempting to check in for an update - no response could mean the service is down - maybe because it doesn't need to be availiable 24h or maybe to revise the downloads......

Anyway from the first no answer you would expect multiple error due to persistant failed attempts until the service was resumed..

2. the Sync error is more important but this again means that the modem temperary lost tracking of the carrier signal. Electronics are far from perfect - thats why error protection is often employed, but anyway the modem did its job by re-aquiring the carrier and re sync'd. The log doesn't show successful attempts just failed attempts. This may have been for perhaps just 1/2 second - maybe un-noticable.
