Problems with BT Broadband and Windows XP laptop.

I couldn't go online yesterday, I had problems with BT Broadband. It worked when it felt like it, otherwise I just couldn;t use it. Did anyone else have problems yesterday Friday, could it have been anything to do with the stormy weather ? Also could I have lost any emails because of this? I was expecting one this morning from Canada and it hasn't arrived. I am also having problems backing up onto a disc, it only loads 1/4 of the backup and then stops working. I used a Tesco CD, should I try something more expensive ? I am not technical at all, so laymens terms please. Thanks all.

no you shouldn't have lost any emails due to it.

are you sure the backup will fit on one CD? (less than 700MB) if so try a different brand of CD.
