Why does the Player disconnect sometimes when it starts playing content?
The Player may be detecting your connection speed incorrectly. In Windows Media Player 7 or later, you can manually specify your connection speed on the Performance tab of the Options dialog box. For more information about manually specifying connection speeds in Windows Media Player 6.4, see article 253798, “Windows Media Player May Stop Responding or Generate an Error Message When Streaming Media,” in the Microsoft Knowledge Base.
