Sky Connection

I am having great trouble maintaining my Sky Connection. I have take a screenshot of my router status page and can't understand why the ADSL slots are empty and the LAN slots full. Wouls be grateful if anyone could put me right before I commit Hari Kari. Hopefully the screenshot will attach ok.

Re: Sky Connection

One of the biggest causes of dropping connections is UPnP, turn this off:

Also, you could try connecting to the test socket and then redo your stats:

Re: Sky Connection

The adsl slots should show the connection between your router and skys servers via your telephone exchange.
The lan slots are the connections from your router to your pc's.
When you say maintain connection do you mean that the adsl slots sometimes are shown as connected ?
