Recently I have been getting cut off once a day at random times. My pc is always on as is IRC and when i come to it there is no connection, Either I have to reset my PC or disable and enable my ethernet adapter, When I clicked repair it came out with something of the lines of "failed to renew IP, contact your ISP" It reconnected anyway and now I can use it again. Do you think it is my ethernet card? because it seems fine to me or maybe a problem when trying to renew my IP from NTL, although when i do get reconnected I still have the same IP address.
