You have to have your power/electricity supply with TrustPower to get their broadband service.

1123454 2010-07-30 23:31:00 um...actually i am not familiar with the internet connection stuffs..i am just using the router that telecom provided . I hv already given lots of phone calls to Telecom to try to solve the problem but unfortunately there is not much they can do :o Also I hv to spend a lot of time for it, it pissed me off very much :mad:

basically try a friends router and see if it helps. the freebies are not known to be great. or use your one at your mates place who has broadband.

request a line check and maybe the chorus dudes will fix it for you. for me before i had only 2Mbit or 3Mbit speed and then suddenly I had huge static which my modem couldn't connect at all, chorus guy came and replaced cables and now i get 5Mbit :D note that if it is relatively static free like before with us at 2 or 3Mbit it may be within tolerance so they might not do anything ....

A dodgy router, faulty filters or crappy phone line etc could cause disconnection problems, these things would not change if you changed ISP .

I assume you did try to get Telecom to fix the problem?

If you have that thing, I suggest you take it outside, and take any kind of hammer you may have to it .

Then go out an buy a decent one . Those are worse than a kilo piece of doggy doodoo .

Are you connected wirelessly by any chance?

I would suggest Linksys, which is what I use. But they are a tad expensive. Borrow a router from someone and try and see if your connection is still unstable to be sure.

But from experience that Telecom modem is a POS. I had disabled wireless on it and used a much older Linksys access point to give us wireless.

It's more likely a wiring\filter problem
