that does same thing I just wondered if I typed it wrong
so the answer will be same effect. I run trough a belkin router then to my westell modem[dsl] I even tried  direct into the westell dsl modem nothing does it. I did remove ubuntu and fresh reinstall as other options was failing too. I have as my file drive a Western Digital  80gib hard drive that my other saves are on. I did lose my wine was all. Ubuntu runs on a Western Digital 160gib..
