I have just returned to my parents house, and connected my PC to the net through their router (a Netgear, I don't know the model off hand). Everything seems fine for a while, but at seemingly random intervals, my connection to the internet will just stall/freeze. What I mean by this is that I may be loading a webpage and it will just stop loading half way through, or a download will stop transferring...
The connection lights on the router continue to flash, ut I get nothing happening on my PC, the little connection lights in my system tray remain off... The only solution that works is to restart the download, or refresh the webpage...
Any idea why this might be happening? They are on a 512k connection through Wanadoo in the UK.
Any advice would be appreciated, this is getting quite annoying already and I've only been back a day!
