Hello,

This is my first post to this group. This is regarding a problem I am
facing when I am using Broadband connection.

I have Windows XP Professional OS on my machine. I have just bought an
ethernet card (10/100) for getting the broadband connection which is
LAN based. What is happening is that after 5-10 minutes of usage the
web stops responding. I have to logoff from the ISP provided dialler
screen and reboot the machine.Now, if I reboot the machine, I am able
to connect to the internet. Again after 5-10 minutes it conks off. I
have even called my ISP support guy, but he has yet to provide a
solution.

I have tried installing the Windows XP again, but I am facing the same
problem.

If any one can suggest as to what could be the problem and how it can
be rectified, i would be thakful. Pardon me if this is not the proper
group, if anyone can suggest a group which handles this kind of query,
it would be helpful.
Should I replace my ethernet card with another new one?

Thanks,
PNR


I assume you have an ADSL modem rather than an ADSL
modem/router. I dealt with a similar case recently and resolved
it by tossing out the modem and installing a modem/router instead.
Much nicer: No more "dialling"/validation plus a natural hardware
firewall plus routing capabilities for remote access.
