[slim] SB - Strange symptoms, any ideas?

I've been using my SB for over a year now without trouble (other than the very occasional audio drop-out) until now. Last weekend whilst listening in the wee small hours, after about an hours trouble-free listening, the audio started to drop out in a strange way. A few seconds would play then a

I currently have a 3Com Office Connect ADSL Wireless 11g Firewall router but it's giving me all manner of grief. My various wireless devices keep losing the connection and then will not connect again unless I reboot the rooter. That's another story though - I'm not asking for support here!

I have had lots of luck with Dlink products, DSL-G604T is the 54g WAP variant of their ADSL router which also has 4 x 10/100 wired ports. I use this with SB2 and it is rock solid. I previously used their DSL-504T ADSL router with a separate DWL2000 AP+ 54G WAP - again rock solid but too many

Well, in the past I would have recommended a Belkin ADSL Wireless Router. I have a 7630-4AUK model, which has been pretty good. It has been left on pretty much continually for about a year, with only a few crashes. However, this weekend it has started to give me grief. It's rebooting
