    modem router dropout

    Have installed a new TP-LINK modem/router ADSL2+ but am having problems with it losing the internet connection. It is fine and stays on continuously while the computer is idle but after a time browsing the web it loses connection. I then have to restart the computer to get the connection back again. I have used the same wiring and filter as with my previous modem which worked fine. It would appear that I have got a wrong setting on the computer or the modem but I don't know which. Can anyone give advice.

    Might be a driver conflict.....try updating your drivers to see if that resolves the problem.
