periodic cable modem dropouts
I just recently moved a server onto a cable modem with a fixed ip. My site is hosted on win2k on this fixed ip.
When im trying to connect from home, every once in awhile the connection will die and it says page not found. Sometimes when I hit f5 It goes right back in to the site.
Any tips on how to better troubleshoot this issue? It could be:
My pc
My router
internet DNS issues?
Hosting cable modem
Hosting Win2k Server
Other?
Thanks,
-Matt

Ive been thinking of installing WhatsUp Gold http://ws-ftp.com/products/whatsup/index.html at two locations so then when it goes down I can look in the log files and see which location failed and hopefuly why.
how many different locations do you have?

Any updates here ?
then again it could be dns issues, if the dns server you're trying to get the ip from is temporarily down or under heavy load.
i think you could eliminate your OS from any trouble-shooting though.
