Do you have access to a cable modem? A wireless access point?
A windows machine? An Ethernet port on said windows machine?

All of these things will need to be rebooted when
their internal state gets corrupted.


That's not intermittent, it's a known problem that eventually shows up.
It doesn't come and go, it comes stays there until and you reboot,
because you're not smart enough to fix it permanently. And then you
replace it.

If you want intermittent to mean exactly the same thing
as a microphonic connection then you're too focused.


No, it's just that I know what "intermittent" means. Software can appear
to be intermittent if, for example, there's a near failure of memory, or
the power supply regulation intermittently goes haywire causing
corrupted data. But code that's running doesn't stop running all by
itself unless there's a coding error, a hardware error, or an operator
error. All of those things can be unpredictable, but unpredictable
doesn't mean the same as intermittent.

In the case of this Behringer mixer, there's apparently a problem with
the effect processor board. Behringer seems to think that replacing it
will solve the problem. There may have been a design change, a bad batch
of components, or an assembly operator who didin't get enough coffee
before coming to work.
