I checked the light: both wireless and adsl light where on during<br>
disconnection.<br>
<br>
I tried to check the temperature but I think I need to upgrade my router<br>
first: i cannot find the option. Plus I don't think it is the case as I<br>
reboot every day: it's off for most of the day. Though maybe i'm wrong.<br>
<br>
my router is: <a href="http://kb.netgear.com/app/products/family/a_id/1296" target="_blank">http://kb.netgear.com/app/products/family/a_id/1296</a><br>
<br>
about traffic shaping. Don't know what that is. tried to understand<br>
wikipeida article still don't know what that is. But I'll keep trying.<br></blockquote><div><br>Traffic shaping put simply is just a way of profiling the type of traffic across a link. ISPs will mark (like a tag) the packets going through and then it will apply restrictions maybe on an outgoing interface or even at another router to restrict the traffic if its considered a lower priority.<br>
<br>So for example your bit torrent traffic may arrive at your ISP router and they mark it as a low priority, if the link becomes congested they may even drop some packets in favour of other traffic marked higher priority.<br>

But I think my case is different because even I disconnect. Not only<br>
everybody else.<br>
<br>
Did not try the wired connect. will need to do that some other day.<br>
<br>
if it is the router, why doesn't my wife have problems with her w7?<br>
<br>
I don't think it's virgin or the modem as the light stays on...<br>
<br>
Thanks for the help. I'll try to saturate via the eth0 to router.<br>
