Re: [Xtreme] AT&T threaten me..I think!

TR-069 is a remote modem management tool used by AT&T to remotely change settings and upgrade firmware in the modem.

I don't know which modem you are currently using, but in the Motorola/Netopia modems you can disable it from a telnet command line. The commands below are only possible if your Motorola/Netopia modem supports using the telnet interface (and newer SBC inspired modems don't). I do not currently have access to a 2wire modem, so I can't tell you how to disable remote ISP management (or if it is possible).

config
set dslf-cpewan option off
set dslf-lanmgmt option off
save
restart

However, I think that it is clear from your previous posts that your DSL disconnects are because of the audible noise you can hear on your line, not from frequent updates and reboots from the TR-069 server (those should typically be spaced at least several months apart anyway).

OTOH, I have always disabled any remote access from the ISP whenever possible because I prefer to decide when to upgrade the firmware in my CPE devices, when to make configuration changes, and when to reboot them.

Yea I was just wondering if for some reason the TR-069 was resetting my dsl. It always shows up there right before closing connection in the log.

The "Closing connection" entry you show in the log excerpt you posted simply means that the active session to the TR-069 server is being closed, not that your DSL connection is being closed.

Typically the only time that a remote management session from the ISP would actually restart your internet connection (or the modem itself) would be if they changed your PPPoE authentication or upgraded your firmware (neither of which would be happening at the disconnect rate you are experiencing).
