When the connection quits I am guessing it quits on all PC`s(?). Dose your e mail continue to work? From a cmd prompt are you able to ping yahoo, for example? What type of switch are you using? Have you tried resetting your DSL modem? Dose it seem to happen the same time every day?

 

all pc's use xp pro. sp1 and yes the connection drops on all of them.
The connection just disconects itself (not at the same time everyday).
after i try to connect it again an error acures saying that the connection is allredy dialed.

 

Now I`m confused. Are you on DSL or dial-up? Either way it sounds like your ISP is the problem. When the connection is dropped what happens? What type of errors do you get?

 

i am using DSL-360T ADSL modem (T-link), i will write the error when it will acure i dont know it now. and what is ISP and can it be fixed?

 

ISP = Internet Service Provider. The company that provides your DSL service. The next time the connection quits try this. Click on the Start button. Then click on Run. In the white box type "cmd" without the quotation marks. A black window with white letters will come up. type in "ping www.yahoo.com" without the quotation marks. Read the information that is returned about packets sent and lost. Let us know what it is.

 

my connection just faild i did what you told me and here are the results:
ping request could not find host www.yahoo.com check the name and try again.
Then i tryed to connect again and the error apears:
cannot connect the phonebook entry
erorr 756 : this connection is already being dialed
then i will reset ccproxy and then i can connect

 

Do`t understand the dialing error you keep getting. However it dose sound like your ISP is the culprit. Have you called their Tech. Support to let them know about your problems? You could try resetting the DSL modem. Some have a little recessed button usually in the back that can be pressed in and held for about 30 seconds. Or you could just unplug the power cord for about 30 seconds. Maybe someone else with DSL will jump in with an idea or two.

 

thanks thanderZ i will try that too
Thank you again you helpet very much

 

Let us know the outcome.
