Sounds right David. I can leave my browser on a web page overnight and the next morning it's still active. I use AT&T high speed DSL with a supplied Motorola router.

About once every 2 weeks I have to reboot it.
Given the age and # different dsl services acquired around the country,
I expect many variations on equipment and config.
Mine was a Bellsouth service for many years.

Check your routers config ... there may be a 'keep alive' or 'heartbeat' option that will keep the connection active even when it's not actively being used.
