Unhappy Broadband keeps disconnecting

I have had this problem for over 2 months, the engineers have been out twice but have not been able to provide a long term solution. I have tried my connectin with another PC & my Xbox and they both work fine. I am convinced it is one of 2 things..
1. I have a nasty virus
2. My connection settings are all screwed up...probably more likely.

I am running XP an it is a direct RJ45 connection from the modem to my pc.

Please help...

Re: Broadband keeps disconnecting

could be caused by fractured solder joints on rj45 connector (especially if its surface mount as opposed to pin thru hole)

Possibly a faulty network card in that PC then?

sorry didnt mean the cable,was talking about the connector on the network card/motherboard ie where the cable plugs in( move it about see if it connects /disconnects when moved)
