Sometimes the internet connection is dropped and asterisk doesn't do a dns 
lookup and provider re-rest quickly enough so all calls are going out via 
expensive ISDN.

Also I sometimes seem to have some trouble after re-loading FreePBX too 
often I get things like extensions being marked as busy/not available.

I don't think so, asterisk -r will throw me an error that * is not 
running. If * would be running I would get console I guess?
