Thanks Guru, I will have a read. But there seems to be a widespread problem with Acer machines dropping internet connections. I would have thought that Acer would have addressed the issue by now but after exchanging a couple of emails with them their solution for me is a complete reinstall.......! In other words, they haven't a clue what is causing this widespread problem. I have resorted to a Netgear dongle and my web connection is now perfect which does demonstrate that it is a machine fault.
The lesson is clear. Don't buy Acer. I certainly wish I hadn't now. Regards, Mr Morrers
