| Strange and frequent connection drops
Hi,
Not sure whats causing this:
I started getting frequent conection drops in the last couple weeks. I dont need to restart the router, usually just takes a few seconds for the connection to come back up. First I thought it was random, but I set up a queue of downloads, and it happens every 45-50 megs of downloads.
edit: I guess it might not be every 45-50 megs but the time it takes to download that. 5-6 min or so.
any ideas?

| Don't forget to reboot the modem as well. I had lots of problems that kept getting worse and worse until I replaced the modem (thanks, Sonic). Now all is well again. -- STFU & RTFM | Iraq Coalition Deaths | bobrk |
