please help me?? Network stack being reset every 2 hours

[SCSIraidGURU]

What other events could be causing it?

 

[GreatNate]

what if there is something coming from the vonage device thats hooked up to my computer causing it, what if there was a bug in my router?

If u r not gonna uninstall norton products. Then **** off man

Hey cmon I just wanna get help here with this. Norton is not the problem

You haven't actually described the problem yet.

If you can list the symptoms in detail, someone might be able to help. What do you see? When? Where? What are the exact error messages? Do you know of any way to reproduce it? What have you tried? ... that sort of thing.

I have NOTHING plugged into usb, no self installed software running and this is a 3 month old machine. The only thing plugged in (through ethernet) Is my vonage V-Portal wich I use for voip

Try temporarily unplugging this. Does it make any difference to your problem? If it does, then check the website for any updated drivers, and also check their forums to see if anyone else has the same or a similar problem.

 

[GreatNate]

thats a good idea (ill try that) thanks for the reply, any other ideas?

VOIP could cause funny things to happen.

 

[GreatNate]

I actually wont be able to unplug the voip. because this problem happens so randomly it could go a day without happening and then ahappen a few times the next. I cant go a full day without the phone let alone 1 hour

Hi GreatNate,

What was the information that you sent to Symantec that led them to make the assumption that your Network Stack is being reset every couple of hours?

 

[GreatNate]

logs in my norton firewall

You may love Norton but Norton doesn't love you back. Norton is one of if not the biggest resource hog for security apps out there. Norton is pron to networking issues and hardware failures. I was a true an loyal Norton customer until symantec bought out Norton and filled it up with a bunch of bloatware that just eats up your system resources and slows down your system to a slow crawl. Once your get rid of it and get something free that does the same for less. You will notice a dramatic system speed increase. This is just my opinion.

I had also problems with Norton 360 on my computer. After removing it on advice from this forum, the problems were also gone (plus almost a full year of subscription updates )
