@Danbadman 

That master socket is known to give problems, and maybe the cause of the disconnections.

As mentioned https://community.bt.com/t5/Landline/2019-Master-Socket-kit-loose/m-p/1985566#M6775

You need to connect things up as shown below, and see if you still get disconnections. Leave it like that for a few days.

Re: broadband dropping

You can leave it like that. It does reduce the number of interconnections to one, and eliminates any possible faults on the circuit board, which has a lot of components on it.
