Hi, i have had this problem for a while, but it is finally driving me insane. Basically whenever i am using programs to download files (legal or illegal) the internet keeps on cutting out and i have to unplug the cable modem and plug it back in again. It only happens when i am downloading which makes me think that the guys are telewest are seeing that i am using up a lot of their bandwidth and cut me off. the modem i have is a Scientific Atlanta model DPX110. The helpline guys i have spoke to know less than my mum about computers and have no advice,

Has anyone got any suggestions? Has anyone had the same problem?

thanx in advance, jimmyab
