i crashed while i was online yesterday around 8:30 ish u were all very busy with your heroics run (grats btw )
i tried restarting but my computer said i had no internet conection, rebooted ISP modem/router had internet back for about 5 minutes then it died again.
Repeated this for about 3 times then gave up :D called my IPS today they say the problem is not on there end. (figures)
got back from work today and tried internet it worked for about 30minutes then it failed again and get the same reboot drama as i did yesterday.
Alas - could this be related to you asking last week about putting in a new router?
What is your current setup? Is it ISP cable into cable modem into USB into your PC? Or do you have ISP cable into cable modem into network cable into router, into internet cable into your PC/Wireless to your PC?
IF you have a seperate router, and are using network cables, try taking this out of the equation and plugging the modem direct into your PC via USB if possible, or direct via internet cable. If nothing has changed recently on your PC, I imagine your hardware would be fine.
My money is on the router playing up, or if you havn't got one, the modem from the ISP playing up. Do you have access to another machine, maybe a laptop you can connent to prove the fault isn't your own machine?
As rebooting your modem/router temporarily fixes the problems, it does suggest the finger of blame be pointed at that hardware.....or your ISP is lying and they keep disconnecting you (not to be dismissed, but you need to be sure every part of your hardware is working correctly before challenging them)
