Network Adapter

Is the Intel PRO/100 VE outdated?  I think it is causing me to be disconnected from world of warcraft and I am wondering if it is possible to upgrade my network card manually by replacing it myself and if my adapter is outdated?

    I have done that too from my Cisco box, but when I put the ethernet cable in, it doesn't show any connection whatsoever.

    have you tried putting your main connection directly to your computers ethernet port??
    coz router can really cause disconnect also

    My connection didn't always do this either, it was fine before, but now a lot of people are experiencing what I am and I think it might just be a new patch, but if that's the case why isn't it affecting everyone?

    instead of connecting the DSL to your router put it directly to your computer's ethernet port.

    That's not helping me lol, I have narrowed it down to 2 things, the Intel PRO/100 VE or my router, which is a netgear, but I switched to my linksys as well, but that didn't stop the disconnects.  I really think its my router because that is the only thing the same between my 2 comps and both are having this problem... Do you think it could be my router?
