I'm really not sure what the problem is here but since wednesday i've been experiencing terrible problems with NTL BB. Every so often when browsing the internet it will "lose" the connection. Downloads continue fine and trillian still works but I get a page cannot be found error. Obviously this sometimes happens but since wednesday it happens with alarming regularity i.e. every other webpage I try and view will not be found and I'll have to wait approx 5mins before a refresh works.
Also since wednesday BB will just stop working until a reset the Standalone modem. This happens at exactly 9:30 on wednesday and thrursday and possibly toady (havent been in this morning but when I came back I had to reset).
Obviously this is very annoying and im not sure whether its the modem or my router as i beleive it may be a bit dodgey. I have to set up a port-forward on the router but everytime i reset the computer the router forgets this and I have to re-do it - is this normal?
I'm running Windows XP SP2
AMD Athlon 2100, MS-6570 nforce2 mobo with 768mb RAM
Connected using a Mercury KOB BRAP Router on ethernet to two computers
In Ipswich, not sure what standalone modem I have - its just a silver box with NTL Home written on it.
Any help would be great.
(p.s. sorry if I create multiple threads but every time I hit the submit new thread button I get the page not found error so i keep trying)
