Eircom broadband cuts off after random amount of time

    I have eircom broadband, in Leinster and am using win XP...

    It just cuts off randomly, sometimes after a few mins, sometimes an hour or two, if I restart the pc its working again...

    I have checked all the backround processes, and I have done a full virus check and I am always scanning for spyware with adaware and spybot but I am still not sure what it is. I have checked the physical connection to the modem and into the wall, its a very wierd problem...

    I still think it could be maybe a new virus or some wierd spyware, I've even done a restore on it. Maybe it could be something on the eircom side of things...

    Anyone have any ideas what it might be?

    thanks

    Are you using the ethernet interface or the USB interface on the DSL router that eircom supplied?

    I am using ethernet and its on the dark blue caymen eircom supplied jobby...


    But, it's been working perfectly for months now, nearly a year ( the eircom broadband) all I did was move the computer into a diff room, so maybe its the phoneline playing up...but it was working fine for the first few days in the new room, now it's just acting so wierd, I was playing a game there and getting hideous packetloss, our computer is acting ****ed up now, but I keep scanning it and nothing really showing up cept the usual spyware...
