Can anyone tell me why every so often, around 3 times a day i have to keep unplugging my modem, then plug it back in, because the internet connection keeps stopping for no reason whatsoever?????


(i am on broadband, and also on a network, if that makes any difference?)


very annoying!


Thanks in advance :)

No, i haven't, do you think it could be their problem then?
mine also drops several times per day.im with wanadoo and my modem drops out and says 'initialising line' and then after a few moments its ok again and i can reconnect.i still havent solved the problem but i dl'ed a free bit of software called 'cidial' from download.com which automatically re-connects every time my connection breaks which is handy when dl'ing large files.
May not be your problem, but when my internet was dropping out I changed from USB to Ethernet connection. Not had one instance since and that was a couple of months ago. As you say, drives you mad.
Who is your service provider
