TalkTalk problems

:confused: I wonder if any of you wonderfull bods:A can help, and save me talking to a set of idiots at talktalkindia for a few hours:confused: :mad:

I've been having a few probs with my connection droping, it works for a few minutes goes off for a few minutes comes back on, sometimes stays on for a few hours.

If i run the Talktalk help thing it runs takes a minute or so and it connects ok again:confused:

I had a similiar prob with bt a few years ago and found out it was a driver thing for the modem.

my modem router is a Huawei smartax mt 882

any suggestions or advice welcomed:beer:

    How are you connected - I had exactly the same problem when connected by USB, went on talktalk forum for advice on changing over to ethernet. Problem has effectively disappeared - only get occasional drop when net really busy and then reconnects itself. The talktalk telephone helpline may not be much cop but the guys on the forum are really helpful .
