ARRRRRRRRRRGGGG thats it!

Ive had it!

There sending me mental

Wireless connection drops.... I go fix it

ADSL connection drops ... I re connect it

Server crashed .... I hit it then reboot it

(by this point im really peed-off!)

Laptop freezes - I throw it (then slide the hard drive back in since it flew out on impact  ) Now thats working again

NOWWWWWW the bloody ADSL has dropped again TWICE and ive just had to retype this thread again!  

Not a happy bunny!

And if this wont post objects will fly!

Let me guess.... sky broadband?

No mate, Zen and they have been crap for the last 6 months at least!

Its gone down 3... YES THREE times while trying to reply to this thread...


Lets see if it will post now???

I only said sky cause thats what we have. I gave up trying to use the wireless option 3 weeks after it was fitted! Even now the modem will reset itself 2 or 3 times a day! Which is a pain as my CCTV needs a fixed IP for me to remote view it

Hmm, that's rather odd as I havn't had any problems with Sky broadband in over a year that I have had it. It does annoy me that you have to use on of their routers though.

[Jimbob]

That doesnt sound like Zen!

Perfect here for months at a time.

I would be looking closer to home....can you try a different router?

Have you tried a fault call, Zen are normally very helpful

Everything was working fine until 20:00! Then everything just went wrong!

Dont use a router  :-/

I will borrow another modem from work tomorrow and see how that goes!

Has dropped out about 11 times in the last hr! However, my line was upgraded this morning free of charge from 256kb to 300 WOOO!  

Normally it drops every 5-10 days, but the server just redials and its fine  :-/

Have had  SKY for quite a while now with no probs -- the first week it dropped the connection every couple of hours ---- complained to Sky who flashed the software and never had a drop out since.

I have a dynamic IP on my broadband but use No-IP.com to spoof it so I can run my website from home. There is a small monitor program which runs to talk to their site so they can monitor my IP and update the Internet if I change for any reason. Don't know if this would assist you?
