Battle.net Dropper...? (a.k.a a WTF moment)

[Harrierfalcon]

I try and want to play on Battle.net. I have hosted a few games, but there's an issue: After about 15 minutes into the game, my NetGear wireless card drops it's connection and thus my connection to Battle.net. I tried it on a different computer with a cable, and it did the same thing.
What's happening?
P.S. I have only hosted: not joined.

When you say different computer. Do you mean different computer in the same building?

[Harrierfalcon]

Yeah. Why?

[U-238]

Where do you live (aka Country/City/Big City/City Suburbs/ect ect...

And HarrierFalcon, are ya sure that the 15 mins drop out thing wasn't set by the system manager on the buildings router or proxy? :o

Damn, beat me too it, however i was thinking that it was more of a 15 minute refresh setting.

[Harrierfalcon]

It's not. And I live in suburbs. Also, I know it wasn't set by the manager for 1. I have access to router settings and 2. I don't lose connection after 15 minutes of anything else, like surfing the web. I used to play a different game online, but It was too advanced for my comp so the lag was horrible. I did play a game for about an hour before the opponent quit (cause of lag) and I had no problem.

Hmmm. Well I think your problem is your internet connection. It drops. You may not think it does but it does believe me. Now depending on what the other game was its server may have been set up with a slight delay function or whatnot so that if someones internet drops and then reconnects then it doesn't drop you. However if I recall striaght B.net servers don't use that type of thing so if your internet drops for more than 2-3 seconds then you're done for.

I e-mailed my brother, he says our ISP (Yahoo SBC)doesn't like B.net, so I'm outta luck. That really sucks.

[U-238]

Ahhh that could be too.
