Anyhows. Every since i changed package , my internet keeps disconnecting alot , maybe 3 times in the one hour or even 3 times every minute, it depends , but most times it disconnects every hour
It never reaches its 4MB speed, and is always between 2.7 and 3.4mps . I can live with this as its still faster than 1MB.
But my problem is with the disconnects . I phoned my isp today and had it out with them to see if this problem can be fixed. I was on to a winner cos he was giving me good advice and advice none of the other tech supports were giving me.
But just before i got what i needed of him, strange enough the line hangs up. So i was connecting to this line at 50p a minute and was on for 22mins and am still no further forward.
But i did get enough info off him to try and combat this problem myself and come here and maybe someone will know the rest of it and fill in what he would have said.
Ok, as far as i got with him he says'' go into run and type, NOTEPAD C:/ Windows Drivers /adids '' then after that its where i got cut off. before that also he was saying about using this way via notepad to change some numbers or something , and by doing that , this will stop the disconnects.
I tried this way he said, but because i did not get the full info off him i cannot complete this task . But i did go into windows 32 folder /drivers folder and i found what he may have be trying to describe to me.
this is what it looks like in my adids folder

I think he was trying to tell me to either delete a number /numbers or add some.
This is where i have become stuck and i was wondering if any of you guys know of this propblem or have come across this before?
It is a ''USB ZOOM ADSL USB MODEM'' Model number 5610
This is the info he asked of me , then this is how i have come to being in the adids folder. any help on this matter would very much be appreciated
..........PROBLEM 2
Speaking to the same tech support at Supanet
This is not so much a problem as the one stated above but no the less, still very annoying to have to deal with
I do be playing online games and as yous know ''PING'' is an important part of multiplayer games
I have had many Solutions suggested to be and some practiced but they seem to have no effect.
I got a thing called ''InterLeaving'' switched of on my line cos this i was told helps the ping levels if switched of, i had to phone my isp which inturn phoned my phone company . they then switched this off for me.
but my pings are always very high and in someways this has to do with the problem above also, its connected somewhat.
when i had the 1mb package my ping times were always fine and had no probs at all, but since i changed to upto 8mb , its seems my ping has gone through the roof and at sometimes double the rate it should be.
I ve noticed if am running at a lower speed say , 2.7 or something , my ping times in games are lower, but when it disconnects and then when i reconnect , its at a higher mbs like 3.7 or something. then this is where i get high ping times.
It has only been like this since i upgraded my line speed/package. i never exceed my bandwidth or anything, all temp files /prefetch is always cleaned out and comp is running clean of virus and all nastys that i can get via the net.
I have exhausted all that can be done and now i come here just to see if someone out there has or knows of same problems listed above.
I could ring my isp again, but this costs me an arm and a leg to do so and i dont want to be wasting anymore money for half got info and its just a mad run around every time due to the language barrier.
Thanks very much for reading this and am sry if its a bit of a mix up to read etc
any comments on this matter would be very much appreciated
Kind Regards and thanks in advance
