So recently I've been noticing a cycle with my VMG8924-B10A, the SNR on it would start at 7db then over a course of a day or two would drop to 4db and sometimes lower and around day 10 the connection would just drop. With my old HG612, similar behaviour could be observed though it would be on the scale of weeks not days so I'm not sure what's happening to the line or my equipment. I've contacted BT and they said the line was fine but my speed got recapped at 29999kbps after getting it uncapped weeks ago.
