Here's the setup, hopefully someone is familiar with Vonage. I have everything running to Vonage, then Vonage relays the internet to my wireless router and it goes from there. I'm getting a perfect signal strength, no problems with that. It works great when I'm browsing or downloading miscellaneous files. Here's where the problem rest. It seems when I'm receiving data from multiple sources (BitTorrent, online gaming, etc) the internet completely cuts out for about 3-4 minutes. Actually, it doesn't completely cut out, because I can still actively chat on AOL Instant Messenger.
The way it typically happens is that I will refresh the servers on CS:S, then goto join the game and nothing happens - check the internet, dead.
BT is a little bit different, usually the downloads go fine, but periodically the internet will shut off for a few minutes and come back on.
I was speaking with Comcast on the phone during these occurrences and everything on their side came out fine. He was pinging the modem as my internet stopped working and there was no issues. Signal strength is great and has been for years.
I'm really just completely lost. I've tried fiddling with the Vonage router settings, the netgear settings and nothing seems to fix it. If anyone has any ideas I'd really like to know.
Thanks
