DSL HELP PPLEASE!!!

[kuchinu]

I switched to DSL about 2 to 3 months ago. Everything was running great
untill a month ago. DSL will work for about 5 minutes then all activity will
seize. The inactivity will last for about 5 to 10 minutes then activity will
continue again. At first, restarting the comp will help, then when it got
worse I tried the "ipconfig /release" and "ipconfig /renew" command. This
worked for a while then stopped working too. My last resort was to restore
my comp to an earlier time. This seemed to work for a while, but now it
stopped working too. Does anyone have any idea how to fix this? I know my
router and modem are fine, because the other computer connected to it is
fine.

I got a Dell Dimension 8250, running windows XP with P4 2.66, 512 RDRAM,
with Intel Pro 100M Ethernet card.

Help me please!!!!!

What router or DSL modem are you attached to? Try switching it off and on,
let it reset itself and see what happens.

If that's failing it would give the symptoms you describe - and there's
little doubt that the manufacturer/reseller of the DSL modem or router
you're using would replace it if they're a reputable bunch.

the DSL modem/router is iCOM but i know its fine because the other computer
connected to it is fine.
