Now I know I'm not insane. This is EXACTLY my problem. Also using the Sprint 660 modem, but no other routers or anything. Definetly a Sprint (now Embarq) DSL problem. I would suspect they have a way to know if a file sharing program is running and to discourage you from using it they will shut off the connection.
To clarify a bit, this is NOT a limewire program disconnect. My DSL modem will reset constantly while Limewire is running. Obviously this makes downloading impossible. This only happens on my DSL. I moved 3 months ago and at my old house I had cable internet. No Limewire problems. So in 3 months nothing has changed except the internet provider.
And again, this is only when Limewire is running. The internet connection is rock solid at all times except when Limewire is running. Me and the above guy can't be the only ones who have seen this.
Anyone now how to get this resolved?
