Hiya
 
I've got some trouble with my network. I'm connected to internet via lan and get my ip(and gateway, ect.) from a dhcp server.
Well the problem is downloading larger files. Suddenly the network stops responding and to fix the problem i disable the network and enable it again. Then i can download approx. 7 mb more before it happens again. I have the problem both with internet and lan.
 
My config:
win2k pro us version.
3c905 adapter with 3com drivers
700 Athlon TB
128mb Ram
 
What can I do to get rid of this annoying problem?
 
Mvh

I actually had that same problem with my 3com Etherlink III. It ran just fine, until I started playing half-life. It'd work for a few minutes, then the connection would die, and I couldn't get any activity from the card until I disabled and reenabled the network. My advice would be to try a difference net card, and see if that solves the problem. As for my old 3com, I pitched it.
