BB cutting off after 20-25 mins

[NewBlood]

It started id say around an hour and a half ago.
My bb stops msn turns off any net games freeze etc etc but the modem says its connected. i checked the freeserve site and nothing so hopefully someone here can help.

Im using an alcatel speedtouch modem USB

Any info would be great this is a really annoying problem and i have no clue whats wrong.

usb sux0rs. use network 10/100

 

[NewBlood]

I cant change my modem >=/ this ones is useually reliable since i got BB ive not had any problems untill today.

 

[urbanfox]

well, in general usb modems suck, and 10/100 is always better. u do have a virus scanner? there have been some sneaky stuff that is almost undetectable. i had a duron 1.3 system and it said it was connected to the network fine everything looked ok couldnt find out what was wrong becus it couldnt connect to net and other comps. ended up just reformatting and it fixed it all. id recommend panda antivirus very nice

The problem could lie with BT, if you live near manchester you could experience some trouble as one of there main cable lines caught fire.

Or, you could be having what i'm having .. BT wish to save money and will d/c anyone they see fit.

Knock it all you want, but I used AOL when I didn't have any ISP (i used the trials). I could keep connections up for weeks.. AOL is not that unreliable, and it was realitively good connection speed too (46.2kbps (4.62Kbytes/s).

 

[NewBlood]

Thx for ya support but the problem just stopped.

It wouldnt bother me if i knew what was wrong and i knew how to fix but it just vanished which is quite frustrating. anyway atleast i can carry on with my games now

I am actularry a AOL user with 56k modem as Broadband aint in my area and AOL is the cheapest. Yes it does cut me off sometimes but once i got AOL9.0 you can downlaod a program which "fixes" it.
