My cable connection drops completely on me from time to time while on the web, and the only way I can get it back again is to reboot my comp. This is a new development also, when I try to get a server list on gamespy, my connection drops at around the 100th server. When i say drops, I mean completely dead, repair connection under network settings doesn't work, can't open web pages, ICQ, etc. I have to reboot the machine to get it back.
I have a cable connection not connected to a router. I'm using windows xp, have updated both windows and the drivers for the 3com gigabit onboard lan on my p4c800 deluxe, and nothing improved. Tried turning off all virus protection and firewalls, same problem. The only thing I can think of is that I had the Sasser worm recently, but I removed it with no problems.
Any suggestions would be appreciated, and thanks in advance.
