Broadband connection problems

[Ecky]

Interesting to see who your ISP is Ecky. I too are with them, and I too are having the same issues. Nothing has changed here pc or program wise, but in the last month or so the drop offs have been happening more and more.
Tried the line with a work lappy and nothing else connected, and it did the same.
I know of three other users with iPr and they are having the same problem.
Contact with them has been a waste of time as they want to know endless amounts of info on which lights on the modem are flashing at the time and how many times, that sort of cr--.
The first I know is when my pc cannot contact the server, and by then it has happened.

Been with them 6 years but out of contract with them now, so maybe time for a change.

Yep - been doing the whole "which lights are on?" etc with them.

Only thing is changing ISP means changing email address, which I've become accustomed to and everyone I know knows it.

Ecky, you might be able to keep your email address on an email-only basis, as opposed to linked to your ISP provision. Should be free?!

I'm with Westnet & haven't had a problem with connection or dropping out.
