Has anyone ever had their Dway connection disappear?  Today my connection just went bye-bye.  No warning, no new software installation, just browsing and poof!  I had to reinstall the software and couldn't even get connected for web registration.  After the comp rebooted it detected the usb satellite connection, but still wouldn't connect for web registration until I went in and manually put in the address. After I did that I finally got connected but was only running at about 200 Kbps.  Did a regedit and found 4 usb satellite connections, 2 of which were dway and I only installed the software twice today since reformatting my HD a few months ago. I deleted the other three connections and put the tweaks back in  Had to tweak the registry  manually too, to get back up to speed but finally got it up and running decently again.  Has anyone else had this happen?

Wish I could get my speeds back up to that. My crashe last week and tonight I had hardly any connection. I don't know how to do the reg edit stuff or I would try those tweeks. THIS SUCKS!

I cut the modem off for a few minutes and now this is the blazing results I have!

mine just suddenly desconects sometimes. or "Freezes" and i just have to unplug the DW6000 system and reconnect and it resets..and it works fine Razz it usually happens when im downloading way too much stuff and overloading the bandwidth.
