This is usually caused by the Cayman believing that the DSL connection has dropped and it then tries to reestablish the connection. When it tries to login to your provider again, their server has never realised that your connection was dropped. It then denies the login thinking that you are attempting to login twice. As a work around, do the following:

1. Browse into your Cayman.
2. Goto Configure
3. GotoWAN
4. Goto WAN IP Interface
5. Click Advanced
6. Change the Max Terminates and Restart Timer to higher numbers.
7. Click submit
8. click the Yellow Triangle and choose save and restart.

This changes forces to Cayman to hold a "dropped" connection a little longer before trying to login again. The problem can be due to a poor DSL signal, lost packets, or just from your provider taking too long to acknowledge a packet. Raising these settings will not cure a line problem, but they will stop the Cayman from dropping the connection so quickly. If you do have a line problem, please contact your provider to have the line checked.
