When I power off and power on the device OR reboot it, the internet led will become green for a moment and then red and it stays there, UNTILL i issue a "adsl configure --snr xx" command from its ssh/telnet. Then , it goes green and all ok.

Why this behavior? 

[JGO]

Do the instructions say it should work that way ?

I must say mine does NOT do that if I power cycle it using the power button.

Has it always had this behaviour?
Have you tried restoring the default config or doing a factory reset.

I would guess that previous use of this command has broken something. Does anything show in the logs?

Yeah, it still does this after a factory reset.

I will try to wait for 30 minutes and see if the internet LED will ever turn to green without issuing an "adsl configure --snr xx" command.

EDIT: Well ,it still behaves like this and it's unnacceptable but I found a solution which may be considered a workaround, because not anyone can do this (unless they own a server, a NAS or other small device like router or AP with linux , working nearly 24/7 on their local network).

I have created a watchdog script on my linux headless server that sends this exact adsl command to the router every 2 minutes, succesfully restoring the internet, only if it (the server) can't ping 8.8.8.8.
