Problem connecting to internet

I haven't a clue as to what's going on here. I've been on the phone with my ISP several times and haven't found an answer that matches my problem anywhere.

This just recently started happening. The only thing that has changed physically is that they replaced the old 20 year old cable coming from the pole outside to the house. Everything else has worked fine in the past.

The problem:
While downloading torrents, my internet goes out. But, I'm still downloading torrents at full speed. I've tried pfing, lowering my number of connections, upload and dload speeds in utorrent. Nothing seems to work. I've even switch from ethernet to wifi to see if that would do anything................

if you are using a cable modem
try typing 192.168.100.1 in your address field of your browser
that usually shows your cable modem stats

and report back the numbers you are getting

and I am assuming you are DL non copyrighted Torrents or open source like Linux Distros right?

What I'm using is a Netgear Advanced Cable Modem Gateway CGD24G.
It doesn't matter how many torrents I download or the speed and connections I restrict on them, it still messes up my internet access.

I use utorrent.

I tried making my ip static and forwarding the port....still nothing....

chances are its your isp disconnecting you. some monitor there services and limit or disable access to p2p traffic at certain times of the day or ban it all together.
get on to them and ask them for a web addi that shows the T'Nc's and traffic management protocols... you may find that they do have heavy restrictions in place for people who go over the usage quota or use p2p.

a quick email should sort this out.

if you find that traffic management has nothing to do with it, you can ask them to run a diag on your line. the chances are they will find a problem. especially if you recently had a connection replaced.

still have an issue? then try reinstalling your ethernet drivers.

wasnt meaning to stand on yer toes m8... please feel free to jump in as different points of view will root out the problem quicker.
