FR ckts. can drop generally either due to provider switch problem or due to
line problem.
If you got a CSU/FRAD, check the line performance parameters. First look for
stats. to see
any errors, specially SES/BES or UAS. Some CSU/DSU provides also status on
the errors like
Yellow/Red alarm etc. Also check Frame relay parameters like Frame
reliability errors and lmi 
disconnects to isolate whether this is a frame relay issue. From a practical
point of view, run a continious
ping with 1500 bytes to see whether packets drops but your problem more seem
to be a LEC issue or FR
switch. Once a ckt. drops it takes exactly 1 minute for FR ckt. to come back
up.

Hope this helps.

Habeeb.
