Title: Anybody else lose connection about 8 o'clock?
Post by: Nerval on Jan 07, 2007, 20:47:10
Don't know if it's my router playing up, but I've just returned to find no internet connection and a log message to the effect that it had cut off due to "idle timeout".

Router had been on for 4 days non stop with no problem, and required turning off and on again to sort it out.

Anone else have trouble - not sure of exact time, but I suspect 8 ish. :(

Yup, just checked and apparently had a disconnect just over 10 mins ago. ???

Router automatically re-synced itself at a better speed than before though. :) yay

Wasn't just you,my connection died altogether around 8.00pm,that's the third time in 4 days.

When I rebooted the router the SNR was showing 24 upstream and 6.5 down, this morning it is back to the usual 24/11.

Speed seems ok now,will see what happens later today.

Hi Dorset
Further investigation shows that my router's settings are knacked (P2P not forwarded), and I've had to restore the settings.  I'd guess the ISP or even BT can't do that.
So in my case at least, looks like the router playing up.
And it was going so well!! :laugh:

My connection also dropped and required a router reboot to get it all sorted again. Can't be specific about the time but it was probably around 8.
