Guest kamil234 Posted September 1, 2007 CID Share Posted September 1, 2007 whenever i large files (200 mb+) my internet disconnects when im using windows vista. i dont know what the problem is, it works fine when i play games online or browse the web. but it seems to happen with the big files (even when i stream movies sometimes) and to get it back i have to power boot my router. its annoying when you download a file and than you internet disconnects and you have to restart the download... anyone know of a fix for this?

ninjageek Posted September 1, 2007 CID Share Posted September 1, 2007 I can say this is the very first time I have ever seen this type of issue? Could it be your internet provider concerned about file sharing so they have a cap on the download size? Just a thought. I am sure there are tons of programs. My browser that I use is opera, I know it has a resume feature. May want to see about some kind of program to help with this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ninjageek Posted September 1, 2007 CID Share Posted September 1, 2007 I noticed you have a rounter. I swear I am not trying to sound like a broken record. Could it be you need a diffrent set of drivers for vista with your router? Not sure if its a option. Can you bypass the router, Hook up direct and see if that fixes it?? Thats about my limit of knowledge with connection issues with vista. Sorry I could not be more help. You could always partition your harddrive and run vista and xp til vista gets patched and behaves a bit better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ghostmaster Posted September 11, 2007 CID Share Posted September 11, 2007 try windows vista home basic I don't think downgrading his version of Vista is going to help. Like Ninja said, does it do it without the router involved? Maybe your router needs a firmware update to be more compatible with Vista's TCP/IP stack....
