My Modem Vs. WHAT YOU TALKIN' 'BOUT, WILLIS?

The first couple of times, I thought it was a coincidence, but now I'm sure of it. Everytime I go to CMWillis's website (WHAT YOU TALKIN' 'BOUT, WILLIS?)- which I really want to do because he has a sweet baby I enjoy reading about, I get kicked off! My modem refuses to let me stay connected on his page for more than two minutes! What's up with that? I know my modem is kinda crappy and needs replacing, but isn't that just a little weird that it happens on his page everytime?

There's no excuse for a modem these days, much less a crappy one.

Waaaayyyy back in the day I figured out a way to craft a packet of information in such a way that even though it looked like a bunch of numbers to a person it was actually a "shut off" code for the modem. So I could literally knock people off the internet at will. I wonder if by sheer coincidence this page has somehow come up with the right combination of bytes such that it is doing it to you modem users.

Hey, I'm completely ignorant of any such code, but I'll be glad to know if I am the cause of glitchy telephony and how to fix it. I'm just excited someone reads my baby posts. Baby momma will be excited too!

Yeah, ~sigh~ I tried to read it again, and I got knocked off. I don't know how you'd fix it, if it's something in your code. Anybody out there have a suggestion on how to identify and fix the prob?
