I just got an ethernet card so I could plug my cable modem into it and not have to use the shitty USB connection. Ok so it set up fine but now every time I switch on a light or the fridge comes on or the oven or whatever I lose my connection. I wiggle the wire in the back of the modem and push it in a bit harder and back it comes.
A friend suggested a spike something or other as he thinks the modem is over sensitive. Im gonna try getting another ethernet cable from work tomorrow if they have a spare but Im kind of out of ideas other than contacting my ISP and getting a new modem posted out.
