Not a 2wire user but I believe the router logs are available via the management console for v4 and v5 and routerstats lite is available also. Any signs of packet loss and high ping times

Can you see the router while you're playing/talking, Colin. It occurs to me that both activities need good ping times...

It would be worth plotting your ping times, then and see if they're jumping about.
