    My huawei modem has started to have problems keeping connected to the internet.
    I'm not sure when it started, but i think it was sometime around the time i installed Ultimate-N 6300 drivers.

    Here's what the network traffic looks like while downloading an update to Ad-Aware:

    It took so long i left it downloading overnight because it seemed to never end lol. Usually takes a few minutes.

    Sometimes it jumps as high as 700kb/s and runs smoothly 300kb/s+ for a while but then crashes back to 0.

    It looks like it works fine but something keeps disconnecting it for some reason..
    Sometimes it switches from 3G to 2G too.

    Soo... any ideas what could cause this?
    Is there any random things i could try to do just in case it works?

    edit
    It's E160E

    Could be a problem with your internet carrier or the modem itself.

    Find out by trying it on another machine.
