This is totally weird and has me baffled.
I have a broadband cable connection through my digital tv box. It runs from the tv in our lounge through the ceiling into my bedroom where it plugs into my ethernet card.
For a while now my connection has been playing up. It will just drop for no reason, sometimes 4-5 times a day.
My computer tower is about 6 inches away from a wall.
Now here's the weird part. When my connection drops I can guarantee that one of two ways will reconnect me.
The first way is to move my tower away from the wall - even just a few inches. the connection comes back instantaneously.
The second way is to just put my hand around the back of the pc somewhere near the ethernet card.
It's just totally weird I can't figure out what the heck is going on.
