I think the connection drops when NTL renew the ip addresses, although i am no expert!

Any help would be appreciated..this has me flummoxed!
I've seen this discussed many times. I have the same problem with my BEFSR41 (v.1) and it was not solved by updating to the latest firmware. In fact the problem got worse. Instead of dropping the connection once a day it now drops every time I leave the CM and PC off for a few hours.
