I've noticed something this last couple of weeks and that is our 4mb connection keeps dropping - but only in the evenings!
I did have zonealarm installed until recently (the other day in fact LOL) and it's made absolutely no difference to anything... our router plops off and on again - usually only a matter or a split second or two, but it's enough to throw our two comps offline. My comp is 6 years old and my partners is just under 6 months old... so it's NOT the computers fault, nor is it the router as we've connected seperately and it still drops in the evening. There's usually three or four drops between 7pm and midnight usually.. sometimes, I can stay connected, other times, there's a delay before I'm booted...
