my internet disconnects every hour

Recommended Posts

Last night at about 10pm I was asked to upgrade my security kit . That's sth my ISP offers that has an anti-virus, firewall, antispywre protection, smam protection etc. It's actually an F-Secure thing..my ISP gives it to its customers. Anyways..till last night the thing worked great. After the upgrade I was asked to reboot..I did. Since then I disconnect every hour! That's no joke..i honestly moof on an hourly basis.

 

my messenger goes offline too. Earlier today I waited for itas I know when it's gonna happen ( cause it happens every hour). I had a page open..I refreshed it. It refreshed ok. Also..when I lose my connection and it reconnects I get that lil pop up that says I'm connected and shows my speed etc. When the disconnection happens I don't see that pop up

 

Any ideas? Any suggestions? I'm running a full scan as I type this..but my friends (who's somewhat techy) thinks it's not a virus.

This has to be related to your dynamic ip address that you receive from your isp. By default you should receive a new ip address every 3600 seconds (one hour) and I would hazard a guess that you are not receiving the new one correctly. Not sure how to fix though contact the isp.
