Hey guys, I am having problem with my cable internet, I hope some of you guys can tell me what happen.

I am using AT&T broadband and winxp, everytime when I maxed out my download speed or when I download and upload at the same time, my cable connection will timeout and lose the connection. After like 1 or 2 minutes, my connection works again, it didn't disconnect me from my cable internet company, so I think is not my provider's problem. Does this happen to anyone on xp? and can someone tell me what's wrong and how to fix it.

I am not using usb, I lost those 2 orange lights when my connection lost. Those 3 greens lights are still good when that happens, so i know it didn't disconnect from the host.
