Windows Live disconnecting and lost messages

Am currently using Windows Live Messenger Version 8.1 (Build 8.1.0178.00). I
had a few problems with MSN Messenger disconnecting me but since I clicked
the "Upgrade now" link and got the latest Windows Live Messenger it is
frequently disconnecting me from the internet and then reconnects again by
itself (with the 30 seconds till reconnect countdown etc). Also I am not
getting all the messages through, friends send something and I find I have
missed a message, or not all my messages get through they bounce back saying
"could not be delivered".

I'm on an 8 Meg broadband package and they sent me a new router a couple
months ago so I am assuming its got the right software on it (not that I'd
know how to change it if it hasn't). Any ideas?. Thanks.

I've got broadband from Pipex Homecall but I believe they are a reseller for
Tiscali yes. Do you think it could be a compatibility issue with their server
or router?

Thanks

well I cant say it is tiscali, but I got a reply from someone else who is
having the same problem and they use Tiscali as well, so it is looking like
it could be.
I use 8.1 and 7.5 and they both suffer from this, so to a cetain extent does
yahoo and ICQ although they dont discconect as often.

which makes me think it is a ISP issue. I mailed Tiscali and they didnt
admit to anything
maybe you should contact there helpdesk as well
