When you say "cutting the connection from the modem" do you mean the internet connection or just the connection to the modem?

And in either case what do you do to re-establish the connection? reboot the modem?

Basicaly set the Buffalo WMR G54 up put all the internet passwords user Id and it worked fine then after about 10 Mins or so you try to go on the internet and it comes that that page cannot be found , i dont disconect the internet myself so has any one any ideas why it can be doing this ,

If i reboot my computer it will conect back up then it will lose internet connection.

Thank you for any help given as it is doing my head in and it will be going back to the shop purchased if i cant find an answer.

Nope ... there will be updates, especially for the OS and some hardware. Check out MSs update site. (oops, if you can connect)

a simple one to start, have you checked the "disconnect if idle" option?

Very nieve attiude. When you buy any hardware device the firmware is rarely the latest, it depends when the device was manufactured. i bought a wireless access point the other week and it was manufactured in 2003. just because it's new it doesn't man its new.

Disable Internet Security and try this - NIS is constantly messing up the internet.
