i have changed back to my original router which is a linksys wrt54g hope this works better.

i tried a netgear router which i got from virgin and no good same problems if not worse it would not let me connect after everytime i shutdown.

then the addon router i had the problems with it on a morning.

i'll let you know about this one but i think it maybe some settings in the router not keeping the connection to the modem live and the modem is disconnecting from the server or it maybe the 1tb western digital storage device connected to port 2 i switched this to port 1 and the computer to port 2 i don't know if this wil make any difference.

if its not them im wondering if its vista somehow a piece of software the only thing i have installed that i can think of is mionet a program that came with the storage device to let you remotely connect to the storage drive.


thanks kev
