Hi... My office setting up a LAN with internet sharing connection (DSL). But
since the user is about 10 computers, sometimes the internet connection is
disconnecting by itself so we have to restart the modem. For information, we
are using 2 small HUB which connected each other. In my case, what caused the
disconnection ? Is it because of the HUB or the modem/router ? Thanks..
 
Hi,

If anything is blame I would say it is your modem, I have the same problem
with my 3com router/modem, try upgrading the firmware if this is possible or
searching for problems specific to your make and model of modem.

DSL is not the most reliable of connections at the best of times so it might
just be a case of making sure the reconnect option is selected and idle time
is set to 0 (if there are such options with your modem), therefore ensuring
that the connection will be resumed if the DSL line drops.
