[deathtrap3000]

i have 3pcs (2 with xp and the other with win2000) an xbox, xbox360 and a ps2 all conected up to a router that is connected to a pace stb, all conected through ethernet. I am on the 1mb service.
Its been happening to me for about a year now and after ntl "tried" to sort out the problem and failed miserably every time, i just gave up.
the first tech support guy i rang did some tests and found nothing
the second guy told me to ping some websites with no luck, sent a tecnician round, and he changed the stb with a different 1 (exactly the same type) no luck
the third guy came round and added a signal thingy on the back of the stb where the connection comes in and changed all the cables, again no luck
the forth guy told me it was a problem with ms windows xp and reffered me to an update that didnt exist (but one of my computers are win2000 and the xboxes and ps2 still loose connection, so it cant be a fault with xp)

and i just gave up with ntl and decided to live with the random dropouts

if anyone can provide help i would be very greatious
