Forums Connection Issues DCC Disconnects my internet connection.

Hi all,

When i try downloading stuff from dcc servers, after about 3 minutes, my internet connection will just die, EVERYTHING i mean, i can't connect to msn, go on the net or surf any sites, i would really apreciate it if anyone could help me, thanks.

This is often caused by either your router or your ISP. Specific information may allow someone to give you a clearer answer than that.

well, it was working fine for like 50 years lol untill recently i reformated, i resinstalled the same version i was using, same router settings, same everything but now it just doesn't work.

What kind of information could i give for further support ?

thanks

Router brand and model number are a good start. Also, what OS you're using can be helpful as well.

Bumping this one because I seem to have the same problem. I'm using a d-link dsl-g624t and there are 2 computers attached to the switch (incl mine). Whenever I try to download something, I get the same issues as TS. Ports are configured correctly and I tried lots of things but unfortunate, the problem remains. One thing I discovered is that the problem dissapears when I remove computer2 connection from the switch.

Any ideas someone? thx

oddly enough, i tried that, disconnected my second pc from it does the samething, i even connected my pc directly to the source. still does that. I've opened ports, i've done many thingss, updated my router's connection, changed mirc version :S it's really odd, it used to work fine all these years.

My router is a Lynksys. Windows xp pro SP2.
