As you could read, i've got problems with my adsl modem... It always happen when downloading.. not while surfin'...after 10 min; (could be earlier, could be later), the physical link gets broken. Then i've got to close all internet progs and wait until the link is ok again...
Then i just login and i can continue... Sometimes, i've got to restart the pc.
Very frustrating
The modem is plugged in directy on the motherboard usb port.
Power saving is disabled... usb host controller indicates 19% of bandwidh for the modem, usb hub indicates 500mA for the port.
Tried everything, including usb filter driver, tried a new powered hub, tried winXP on a different partition... tried bios update...
Don't know the solution.

Anybody recognizes the problem?

Thanks in advance

Peter
