Teamspeak interferes with internet connection.

Technical Problems (Advance)
Problem Title
Teamspeak interferes with internet connection.
Operating System
Windows Vista
Description of the Problem
I've tried google-ing and searching various forums but I've not been able to find anything that specifically relates to the problem I'm having, so I thought, while I continuing searching I'd ask here to see if anyone has any ideas.
Basically when I connect to Teamspeak (I use the JOIN button on the bottom of the forums) it somehow stops the rest of the internet working. TS3 will carry on ok and I can speak to people fine, but no webpages will load and ST:O won't connect. I have it set up as push-to-talk and have the TCP & UDP ports forwarded on my router, but that doesn't seem to make any difference. I'm getting a little frustrated because I can't seem to figure it out, so any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Have you tried connecting to our TS3 channel only via the TeamSpeak client itself, and not through the forums? Try connecting via ts.ufplanets.com, port 9987 and through 217.146.93.56, port 9987 to see if you can replicate those problems.
If that brings about the same results, locate a public TeamSpeak 3 channel and attempt the same and let us know if that again brings the same issues.

Ok, thanks. Will try that tonight when I get home.

When you next encounter the problem can you go to the command prompt on your computer (if you press the Windows start button then search cmd) and type

ping www.google.com

and see what it comes up with? It should let you know if any packets are getting through at all.

Typically it decided to work fine all 3 ways tonight. So I'm going to just monitor it for the next few days and the next time it does it, if it does it, I shall pounce and collect data. Thanks for the help though guys, most appreciated.

Just had another thought, but won't be able to test it until tomorrow night, as she's out tonight and has her laptop with her

Glad to hear its working at the moment.

Let us know if it works out for you then.

Since there hasn't been an update on this I will change it to Resolved. shapeless79 should the issue return then post again in here and we will see what we can do for you.

Thanks, I'll test when she returns from her trip next week. Pretty sure it's going to be a bandwidth issue or somesuch. I'll be sure to let you know.
