armed assault kills my internet connection

[gmaan]

As thread title really,

have several games installed vegas,tdu,gtr2,bf2 and suffer no problems at all
with any of them online except arma

problem goes like this,
load arma
go multiplayer = a list of servers
join a server and several seconds later connection failed box
refresh servers = none found
come out of game and even though network card is still showing as connected with right ip, gateway etc i can no longer access the internet or even my router(orange livebox)
if i ip release/renew the connection i am then issued a ip that is not in keeping with my gateway

i am then forced to reset the live box.

anyone got any theorys id love to here them

Cheers
Glen

Sounds like a problem with your router.

Used to own a router which whenever i refreshed a server list in steam would completely hang my internet connection. Isolated it to this as when i swapped my router i no longer suffered from this problem.
