Uhh... what drivers? Grawl was asking a general question: what are you doing when the internet dies? Secondly, have you done anything recently SUCH AS install drivers or update software that might cause it to crap out.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

EDIT: Found out that it only d/ce'd me while playing WoW. Maybe being idle too long?

Or having more connections than your dialup likes to have. (I swear, dial up services crap out after they make so many TCP connections...)

There's nowhere I can't reach.

If a better internet service is not affordable, there's not much you can do. Perhaps you might, however, try plugging your modem into a different phone jack; there may be some line noise or something that is causing the possible signal loss.

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

In most places in the US, sadly, no. There's usually something that comes out cheaper if only by a tiny bit. (Assuming that this person's country flag is true.)

I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body?
