Not sure if it cures your problem but I would suggest running a
caching nameserver on the Asterisk servers.

just an idea, could it have something to do with DNS being unavailable, but
that wouldn't really explain why it would die when ADSL is down... h.

Doug,

No, the phones are all Snom phones - a mix of 290s (actually elmeg
IP190), 320s and 360s.  Mostly using firmware v6.

Cheers

I had the same issue a few months back, internet connection went down, 
pointed the Polycom's to our internal DHCP/DNS and the phones failed. 

Turned out that our bind install wouldn't respond to the network that 
the phones were on (10.10.10.x). 

Since then, I've found how to make bind respond that that network 
segment as well and the phones are fine.
