I wouldn't trust ISDN timestamps, because that clock has no service
guarantee behind it. Telekom may synchronize it with DCF77, but they are
free not to. Myself, I trust Dutch PTT's timestamps as far as I can spit a
piano.
I'd suggest looking into NTP. Most ISP's have an NTP service which is
synchronized to a DCF-77 clock. This gives a much better chance of staying
in sync.
