Cable connection queries
Hi Guys,
My mom has a network of 2 PC with Net Gear Router. When she uses the connection, some time it drops her and it affects on other computer. Then I unplug the router and reset it which reconnect me to the Internet.
I don’t understand why it’s dropping.
Can anyone get me the solution?

Try to replace the networking card and also he network cables that may solve your problem.
You have the both network cards are onboard. I think that the cables are new. I don’t have a single problem when Both PC has Windows XP on it. When I have Windows 2000 Professional on one PC, then it keeps dropping me. Is there any other configuration setting that solves this problem?
To resolve the dropping cable connection problem, you have to do some settings.
- Right click on My Network Places, and then Local Area Connection.
- Click on configuration and then power management.
- Please uncheck “ allow computer to turn off this device to save power”
- Click on Ok. And restart the computer.

What is the IP address that you’re LAN Computers using?
It is the router configuration that may be about your modem and firewall setup on the LAN with help of router.
I think that there is firmware update of modem driver is also needed for that.

Cable connection help
I don’t think about the firmware updates. I have to check for the most recent updates and it may be with the router. I tell that there is not a problem of connection droppings.
Anyone who has a network with 2000 Pro and XP home if you had any experiences with this your advice would be great. Now I believe that I have to switch over Windows 2000 Pro on that computer.
