Why is it that whenever I attempt an FTP server connection, I *sometimes*

Connection entirely?
I then have to physically disconnect the power cord to my router (connected

This doesn`t occur every attempt, only if it can`t connect to the FTP
server relatively quickly, or then it seems to just hang.... and then the
Internet Connection itself is lost!

Is there something I can do to prevent this Internet Connection loss or is
this normal?

Thanks in advance, Matt


This is not normal, but more information about your ISP, dsl modem, etc..
would help. Probably a driver for the DSL modem or the network card, but
that is just a guess. Also, are you running any AV or Firewall software? If
so, what?
