Depends on how the 9 hrs of downtime is distributed. It could be 6480 5-second outages (packet loss). There are 3650 10-hour workdays in a year. If those 6480 5-second dropouts occur during waking hours, you're looking at 2 5-second dropouts every hour, which is going to suck. I had a bad connection because of bad coax cable, and it's infuriating because each dropout causes long delays while TCP recovers.
