Wondering what I can do to help my internet connectivity problems when I'm mining with 2 rigs? I have called the ISP they don't know what's wrong It works fine when my rigs are down. I have 60mbps. The router is a wireless N dual band, I even shut the wifi off still constant problems.

make an exception in the firewall for the addresses you use for mining. but it sounds that your problem is provider related. maybe they block your minig addresses?

What mining software and pool you use?

I had same problem, i am using wiimax connection, the problem was high interfere when rigs start to mine, it also affects indoor antenna for tv receiver.

u say the internet in general for the whole house is intermittent while mining? or just the mining software/rigs?
the 1st one u might want to install a network traffic monitor like wire shark and see exactly whats going on
sound almost like ur router is getting overloaded with packets
which could be a problem with the software
kinda same thing if its just the rigs, if u havent already tried basic stuff like running as admin or breaking it down to one card
lotta problems can happen just from having multiple cards
afraid ur prolly stuck in some head scratching hardware diagnostics till u find a clue

Yeah its a pain in the ass I appreciate the advice from everyone! Gave me a couple ideas to try. And yes @cidmo my whole LAN is affected I think I'm going to buy a new router! Would setting up a 2nd router from the original one help?

first borrow one if you can. no need to buy it if it won't work.

Can you connect one of your rigs directly to ISP cable and check again?
