 How long does the voltage drop have to last to affect the modem? I could
 throw together a "poor man's oscilloscope" using an Arduino board. I can
 sample one of the 10bit ADCs about 500 times per second; that should allow
 me to detect the voltage drop if it last for 4 or 5 milliseconds. Not a
 10MHz scope by a long shot, but is it close enough?

 from /proc/cpuinfo:
 Hardware        : GTA02
 Revision        : 0350

 the date code is 20080620
