broadband hiccups

Broadband Hiccups are an inconvenient interruption to your broadband connection - very annoying during a mass download or a webchat
I was trying to have a chat with X on messenger today and we kept getting interrupted with a seriously bad dose of Broadband Hiccups!

I was just getting to the end of level 15 and oh no broadband hiccups just wiped me out!

I tried to download that as well last night but a broadband hiccup got in the way
