It appears I'm having some sort of broad issue with my setup atm, possibly a broken router but that is yet to be determined. No idea how that could have affected your health but first step is to sort out these disconnections, which is something i'm working through with the ISP. Will let you know as soon as we have progress,

Try the server in a different port on the router? (could be a bad port)
If you can be present when a disconnect happens, does any computer pop up a 'network cable unplugged' message and can you not access the router via lan ip for a little while? (could mean the router is rebooting itself)


If it's not the ISP, my guess would be the router. Anytime I've had issues maintaining a connection in the past that wasn't an ISP thing, it turned out to be a router issue. Either the ports failing, it locking up until manually rebooted, or just rebooting itself after experiencing heavy traffic.

Yeh, looking like a duff router.. not a port thing (as the disconnects affect multiple machines simultaneously). Will be sourcing a new one shortly. Meanwhile the old one is back on.. its disconnected everyone a couple of times today but doesnt seem quite as bad as it was before at the mo.
