[FONT=Times New Roman][SIZE=3]Having some connection issues at the moment and wondered if anyone could shed some light on potential causes and possible solutions

Basically when i start the pc and connect to the net with mozilla it is fine. If I then open a few applications that require uploads from the web however the connection ends and i can only re-connect by doing a system restart? If i try and access the net it attempts to connect but after a minute fails however all lights on the modem are green and the icon (bottom right shows connected 5.6mbps?) We have had the same issue downstairs with the laptop as i am using an extension cable upstairs. Could it be a dodgy BT line/ISP provider?

Forgot to add that i use a USB ADSL MODEM Speedtouch 330 via a company called Eclipse.

Finally, for the most solid connection is it best to keep the wired element or is wireless really a step forward?
