Downloads Disconnecting My DSL

I'm Using WinXP Pro, and for some reason my DSL will disconnect while I'm downloading something. It doesnt do it right away, but only when it "feels" like it. It never disconnects if I'm not downloading anything.
Anyone know what the problem is?
Thanks.
(By tha way, I'm using RASPPPOE and Internet Connection Sharing, if that helps any.)

I have the same issue and it's driving me nuts. The system will start to download and then hang. The odd deal is that I can download from the windows upgrade site. I'm using a Westell DSL modem. Please let me know if you come up with a solution. I'll do the same. Best of luck. Terry
