601201	2007-10-14 01:27:00	About the last week or 2(cant be exactly sure), I have been having constant instability with the internet. Symptoms: Homepage always loads swiftly, but then when you are trying other pages it can take about 5 trys to load the page. The internet will 'disconnect' at complete random, differing from hours or even a couple of minutes between each occasion. A constant Timeout error message when it does disconnect, and the gmail notifier i use will come up with something like Cant find DNS Server. A Spin to this, the other 2 computers connected to the Router have no problems at all. It just seems to be this one. Attempts at fixing: I have completely reformated/reinstalled the computer as it hasnt had a good wipe for ages, considering this might fix the problem. I have tried manually added the DNS Servers to the TCP/IP Config instead of automatic. I have also tried using the USB Connection on the Router, instead of LAN assuming it might be a faulty network card. Checked all the ports had been configured correctly. Checked the firewall for anything it might have been blocking. Tried using a different LAN Cord. Scanned using AVG, Windows Defender, Ad-aware, Spybot Search and destroy checking for anything unwanted. - All attempts obviously failed. Other Details: Speed tests hit 3mb/s downsteam(when its actually working) ISP is Ihug Router is a DSE XH1169 Hope someone out there can help,	warcheftian2 (10747)
