Along with my other thread I seem to have run into another stumbling block with my new router.
What happens is that everything will be working fine (cept previous prob), at full speed then all of a sudden i will get nothing. I can't repair the connection as i get 'cannot renew IP address' and disabling and enabling doesnt work either. The router shows up as an avaiable network so it cant be the wireless connection signal, besides it is always at Excellent/Very Good.
The only way to fix it is to reset the router which is doing my head in as its happened around 6 times today.
EDIT: I may have figured it out...the forwarded ports for bit torrent and msn messenger were clashing and this router doesnt like it when two things (even if they are the same program ex. bit torrent) access the same port.
Hope its ok now
EDIT 2: Just did it again, twice in 5 mins. Bugger it. Im off to bed.I bet its summit to do with Windows XP.
