Frequent "Connection Lost"

I'm not sure if this is normal, or if there is some sort of issue, but I seem to loose connection quite a bit while macro'ing. Does anyone else experience this, or have any suggestions?

There is no server side reason you should lose connection other then the daily shard reboot at about 7am est.
What other info do you have .. maybe power management options ..

I have a fairly new rig, i7 920, so i disabled the throttle in the bios. I'll see how that works and get back. I'm also running windows7

Well, that seemed to do the trick. I've been connected for several hours now. Weird how something like that can affect the game. I remember playing this game on an old 166mhz Zenon computer with 28.8k dialup. Boy, have times changed

Well crap, it started doing it again. Seems like every 15 minutes or so I loose connection. Does anyone have any other suggestions? I'm on a 25MB wired cable connection via a linksys WRT160Nv3 router if that helps at all.

Next time you run the game with your setup go to start menu> Run> type in "cmd" (without the " ")>press enter> type in "ping uosecondage.com -t" (without the " " again) and run it until you lose connection.
If you see the ping packets being dropped at the same time (timing out) as your disconnect, its your side; if its staying the same: Its server/Net side.
