Internet Connection Problem

[New bie]

I am using Windows XP Pro with SP2 and using DSL ADSL Roter.

I am having a problem with my Internet connection.

My main problem (connecting to Net) was solved, from input, which I received
from this NG.

But I do have another problem.

When I am downloading a big file all of a sudden my Net connection gets
disconnected .

Thus I have to start all over again from the beginning to download the file.

Any idea why this is happening and is there any way by which I can stay
connected during downloading ?

Regards.

Try a download manager (which I don't support - nor use).

You need to increase the Maxim Transmission Unit (MTU) on your PC to be able
to finish the updates:
Open a run command and type in:
regedit.exe click [OK] and locate this Key:
[-]HKEY_Local_Machine\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\TCPIP\Parameters\Interfaces=
DWORD (1472)
HOW TO: Change the Default Maximum Transmission Unit (MTU) Size Settings for
PPP Connections or for VPN Connections

Also see thispecs here:

Recommended TCP/IP settings for WAN links with a MTU size of less than 576

Also if you have a Web accelerator can corrupt the Download or disrupt it.
Check your firewall not setting the file Limit to your system.
