Why does my Internet cut out ever 5mins?

Question

I was wondering why my internet keeps dropping out every 5mins, i have broadband... but i thought broadbrand was constant internet?

Is there something wrong with my modem, or is my computer just the thing not working?

please help me it has been doing this for almost 5 days now, i thought it would just go away but it hasn't..

Answer 1

There is either something wrong with the modem, wires, or your ISP.

I'd contact them about it and have someone sent over to check it out.

Answer 2

are you on wireless internet or accessing via LAN. If on wireless then you should try accessing via a :LAN cable and see if it still happens, if it does then upgrade the driver of your wireless router. If it still happens with a LAN cable then it most likely is the fault of your provider and you should give them a call.  

Answer 3

could be a fality modem, look at ur modem while your using the internet and if any of the lights blink red or go off than call your ISP for a replacement
