I have a strange problem at the minute. Im using NTL and over the last week when im downloading stuff after a while im unable to access any websites. It just flashes up done when i try with any browser. I was looking yesterday at the router and i had about 800 mb downloaded and the router appeared to reset itself. After it did this was when i wasnt able to surf. I cant download either but my spotify works fine so it can get the internet. Im pretty certain i can ping google aswell.
I have tried winsock fixes, tcp/ip stack fixes. I have disabled the firewall on my bitdefender. Windows firewall is disabled. The wifi is definately still working cos i can use my iphone on wifi and i tried my mates laptop too and he can.
When i restart my computer it is fixed. But if i try to download again the same thing will happen. On saturday it happened even when i wasnt downloading anything using a download program but i was after watching some stuff on youtube.

Anyone got any ideas?
