Phoenix Posted October 9, 2007 Share Posted October 9, 2007 Are you behind any firewall?Have you tried scanning your computer for ad-ware?other accounts on your computer have the same issue?re Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andrew Posted October 9, 2007 Share Posted October 9, 2007 Maybe you are using too much bandwidch because of your settings in utorrent and that causes webpages to become unresponsive. Make sure utorrent is only using at most 80% of max upload/download capable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deathand999 Posted October 9, 2007 Author Share Posted October 9, 2007 but i turn it off when i have that problem and i still get it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andrew Posted October 9, 2007 Share Posted October 9, 2007 Please answer what firewalls you use, and if you are using any routers. Routers could timeout or something, I've had that happen before where restarting the router would sometimes fix the internet from not working.

Phoenix Posted October 9, 2007 Share Posted October 9, 2007 when you turn off the torrents when you have the problem its already to late.. then your router will time out (i presume you have a simple, by your broadband-company provided router) Those are known to start malfuntioning when excessive traffic is generated for a constant period of time...just a reset will probably solve it..try to adjust your torrent download as andrew said to at most 80% of your bandwidth...

deathand999 Posted October 9, 2007 Author Share Posted October 9, 2007 i don't use firwall and my router is zte http://192.168.1.1/main.html its not the torrent guyes i reset the router 10 times and it still stuck and i don't know about the timed out thing but why some programs still connect? as i said i am still online and some programs still connect at full speed its just like if something is holding the other programs from connecting to the line.. i was disconnecting totally few weeks ago and the isp send a guy and he changed some exposed and rusty weirs out side my house and he got it back on and with full speed but then this cutting thing started to happen but without disconnecting could it still be those weirs?

Phoenix Posted October 9, 2007 Share Posted October 9, 2007 could be..that the router constantly needs to resend packages because the line is bad...but i think, that when they have sent one to fix it, it will be fixed..Have you scanned your computer on ad-ware??

Andrew Posted October 9, 2007 Share Posted October 9, 2007 Yes it could be the network with lots of people using it.Although I find it odd that you say utorrent and every other program continues to work fine, it is just the web browsers. Maybe port 80 on the network is being overloaded? Or throttled? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dragoon Knight Posted October 9, 2007 Share Posted October 9, 2007 I get something similar to this happening whenever I run any sort of "sharing" or P2P program. It can be Limewire, BitTorrent, Ventrilo... hell, even FilePlanet Download Manager or the Blizzard Background Downloader. Any time I run these for a given amount of time (anywhere between 15 minutes and about 2 hours) my connection will suddenly die. All internet activity will stop and there is no way to kick-start it again.That is, there's no way without disconnecting the ethernet cable from the back of my PC. Which is what I did until I realised that disabling the Internet Connection in Network Connections did effectively the same thing. I have the connection as a shortcut on my Desktop, now. Whenever I notice that the connection has died (usually when playing WoW, people start running on the spot, spells won't cast, etc), I Alt+F4 out, right-click the shortcut and select Disable. As soon as that's done, I right-click and Enable again, which solves the issue for the next X hours / minutes.It's really weird and I have no idea why it only affects my PC. It's obviously nothing to do with the router or the service that I have, because this has happened on multiple ISPs and different routers. Might be something to do with my network card or the drivers for it, I suppose, but I really don't know how to find out. Gets annoying, though - especially when you're raiding in WoW and about to pull a boss, when suddenly you've got a chronic case of Link Death.Made reconnecting a bloody art-form. I can go from link death to logged in again in around 15 seconds, which isn't bad.

deathand999 Posted October 9, 2007 Author Share Posted October 9, 2007 ill give it a try when it happen again, thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phoenix Posted October 10, 2007 Share Posted October 10, 2007 I would try to reinstall the computer... it might help..Because those torrent programs, even limewire and other p2p comes with spyware or other crap you actually don't want to have on your system..But try disable-ing and re-enable-ing your NIC.. it might help...but it actually should't be the solution to this problem...I think if this is the "cure", some software is spamming traffic over your NIC without you knowing it.. and upon disableing, windows drops everything in the queue. When you enable the interface again, everything starts over and there is a point in time after that where your card gets again a sort of buffer overflow..For my interest see the taskmanager when this happens.. maybe there is a spike in your CPU usage.. and then you can find out which process is causing the problem.. because it would likely be the one which causes like over 80% CPU usage for a period of time...

deathand999 Posted October 10, 2007 Author Share Posted October 10, 2007 utorrent is clean i dought is has any malware. even if i reinstalled i will still use it again. i never stop downloading .. i dont agree that my cpu is overloaded whats that have to do with opening a web page? i dont have any memory problems at that time and the cpu is normal i an even playe games like bioshock.. i dont have the ability to analyse process to find the problem.. anyway it didnt happen today.. like i said it stricks at diffrent times.. its not so frequent i just thought i might learn something but after all in this advanced technologyes man kind is still at open sea s you may olso accept some storms thanks for replyes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phoenix Posted October 10, 2007 Share Posted October 10, 2007 you might considder reinstalling if you really get annoyed of it..but you can try to reset your LAN-connection when it happens..if you want that to do it way.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deathand999 Posted October 10, 2007 Author Share Posted October 10, 2007 yea i will try that. ive been consitrating on restarting router anyway i was advised before at lac prooperty to disable : client for microsoft netwwork file and printer sharing .... QoS packet scheduler and keep only internet protocol (tcp/ip) is that ok? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phoenix Posted October 11, 2007 Share Posted October 11, 2007 Depends..TCP/IP is needed for sure. no question about that.File and printer sharing is only needed when you share your files or printers in your home network with other computers you got there..Client for microsoft network is needed to reach a different windows computer in your network. but this one normally wouldn't cause weird things..QOS packet scheduler isn't needed either.. because there is no quality of service to maintain..I have them all installed...But you might try to disable them..

deathand999 Posted October 11, 2007 Author Share Posted October 11, 2007 File and printer sharing is only needed when you share your files is downloading torrents a kind of file sharing? do i need File and printer sharing for that ??

Phoenix Posted October 12, 2007 Share Posted October 12, 2007 nope... you dont..its only used between two or more windows machines in the same LAN.Torrents have nothing to do with this.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
