Weird Internet Problem
So I can connect (obviously since I'm on here), but the problem is hard to describe. After successfully going to a few pages, it's like the web browser (firefox and ie both do it) loses track of the connection. It's still connected, it's still working but whatever browser I'm using suddenly says I'm not.

For example. I'll open up firefox, come to tpww, read a couple posts, go to yahoo, search something and then bam. When trying to search all of a sudden it's unable to connect.

Have you messed with your DNS lately? I had a similar problem after I had set up a local static IP, the DNS wasn't working properly so I had to input them by hand.

Do other programs also lose the connection? And how long before you can get it back up and running? Do you need to restart?

I didn't change any settings, and I usually have to restart. It seems to work okay for maybe 5-10 minutes and then it starts doing it. I had switched to a different firewall though, I just got rid of it and am trying without it and I haven't had it happen yet so I'm keeping my fingers crossed.

On an unrelated note I just blew out my speakers cranking up the bass on "Love In The Club" by Usher

Yeah, was more than likely the firewall.

Yup, haven't had the problem since so I think it's all clear.
