This happened about 6 months ago, and mysteriously starting working again, now its happening again. The internet randomly disconnects usually every 4 minutes, then after 1 minute of being disconnected, reconnects. I use a Zoom wireless router and a belkin wireless modem - help please Thanks.

Yup, and AVG free virus.

hmm & r u getting like an error message or a message from AVG or your firewall saying its blocked a connection or any sort like that?

[Teluda]

Nope, AVG is all good, btw every day it starts to do it at 4.30pm every day, so wierd.

Does this occur if you move your computer closer to the wireless basestation? Farther away?

[Teluda]

Nope. I ran a cable from the telephone socket into the main pc, and I made a network and a wireless connection from there, that worked pretty much okay. It has to be something with the router I think?

[Teluda]

I forgot to add, this problem occurs on all the pc's and laptops in this house.

[gerryf]

If it is occuring on all pcs in the house, I suspect a failing dsl/cable modem

You should be able to get your ISP to log into your cable modem remotely and check its logs after talking to tech support

Okay, thanks a lot guys-I'll let you know the outcome
