I'm experiencing problem with my 4MB Streamyx - the internet will just disconnect suddenly, but the DSL, Wireless & Internet light on the router is still there (not turning off like the usual disconnection)
and the network icon on my PC's dekstop tray is accompanied by an exclamation mark, meaning no internet connection
the only way to have the connection back is to turn off & on the router, not even pulling the phone wire off the router will reset the connection
called TM, technician came to check, they said my phone line shared phone & internet connection so need to re-wire. Yeah, I've been using Streamyx for over 8 years without problem like this, but now it needs re-wiring?
Somehow I suspect this is the router/modem's fault. Opinion guys?

QUOTE(mztang52 @ Jul 23 2016, 02:55 PM) Modem/ router which has more than 3 years must be changed once. Of course, it may be your phone line problem. Most of the people change their phone line in their house when it is more than 20 years. I can confirm it's not the phone line because when the disconnection occurs, the phone line is still intact so router it is then?

QUOTE(VeeJay @ Jul 23 2016, 03:11 PM) did you check your modem/phone splitter? That could be an issue as well. Sometimes, when my line is bad, I reset at the main incoming junction box (back of your house probably?) just unplug (unscrew) the incoming wire and reattach back nah, I just use another phone jack for my internet connection, I have 2 phone jacks in my house
