That's a soft rest. A hard rest cuts all power to the device. It's a difference.
If you have one box where to connect phone line to, this is your DSL modem.I think that TGSoldier is correct, because the ping bottlenecks immediately between your machine and your ISP. In addition to resetting the router, do the same with the modem (I've never had DSL, but I assume that requires a modem like cable also). If resetting these don't help, I would call the ISP tech support, because it seems that either your router, or their modem is the problem (assuming that you don't own the modem).
Hi Seekermeister,
I'm a little confused. I thought that the router and the modem are the same thing, i.e. the box that I connect to the phone line?
Cheers

This is what I have - just one box to connect to the phone line.
