Since building a 4.2 system I'm getting weirdness where the permanent dialup link appears to lock maybe once per day, although it doesn't disconnect. Sometimes only http / ftp is affected, but even then its slowed considerably ... mostly all services die totally & the machine refuses to respond to keyboard commands. I've been scouring the logs on machines at both ends of the link for something like "no buffer space" but no sign of anything like that. I've also replaced the dialup modem at my end, and plan to disable the onboard serial ports / install a replacement serial card in case the UARTs are broken. Other than that I can't think of anything else to try right now. I've been running portsentry -tcp to watch for DOS attacks, but doesn't look like anyone antisocial is poking around either.
