Funny that but it's true for me also! When I had the standard USB 'stingray'
thing from BT my connection went down at least four times a week, but never
since I bought the modem/router ;D

Can only recommend the SAR703 from www.solwise.co.uk again - it's great and
dirt cheap compared to most other modem/routers I've seen. </ad>
