Re: Bittorrent & Disconnections - Ambit modems

I found out that when my laptop is connected to the modem diretly via ethernet, I get no disconnections, but if I am using my wireless router, I get disconnections. So if I want to use torrents I plug it in directly.

Seems in my case that my problem is with my wireless router and not with NTL. I think it can only handle a certain number of simultaneous connections. After a random amount of time, my router reboots itself, and I dont get any connectivity again until I pull the plug on both my modem and router and switch them on again.

Is anyone having the disconnection problems without using a router?

Also, I didn't know that you get much less bandwidth over a wireless internet so it was good for me to plug it in with a cable anyway.

Good luck,

Stoo
