Hi!
I recently bought ADSL from BTopenworld. I have ME as my OS, and it doesnt seem to have any problems except when i am playing online games, the thing cuts off after about 5 or 10 minutes. I have been told there is a way to turn this feature off but i cant find it anywhere... Can anyone help?

go to settings'control panel/internet options
click on connections tab, go to properties and click on dialling tab. Uncheck "enable idle disconnect"

Also, check your modem properties too as there maybe an idle disconnect option there too
