modem dissconects after handshake
Do you get an error message upon disconnection? If not how long does it take
to establish a connection? Maybe you have the time for the "cancel call if not connected within" option set too low. Maybe the quality of the telephone line has deteriorated causing the time required for connection to increase. Also the line could have deteriorated so bad as to cause a failure in negotiation to establish the connection but I think you would get an error message of some sort then.

This can be a problem at the ISPs end. Work through things with their tech
