OK im not sure if this is the cause or not but my modem seem to drop out occasionally. i don't disconnect from wow but say i try to open a new wow it wont connect. and just for a test i open lower ping and the go to connect to that wont work and same with ventrilo. im not sure what form type connection you class this as because im no IT expert. but once connect it stay connected just connection is the problem. does honor buddy do something every so often to check your subscription ?
