ISP Window PNR = BBO PNR on my computer!

[AAr]

Whenever all my other windows run normally, BBO seems to run fine.

 

However, whenever my AOL window (And, this is a broadband connection) goes into "Program Not Responding" mode (which usually adds three minutes (sometimes more: Often as many as ten minutes), BBO also goes into PNR. It would seem nice while surfing to at least be able to look at BBO results or such while waiting for a slow internet connection to go, but it does not.

 

Now, while this stuff seems normal on dial-up connections, I don't get why BBO always goes into PNR whenever my ISP window does when it's a Broadband connection and I can even log into BBO without logging into AOL.

 

So, it is likely a problem on my end? Or, is it a BBO problem. It just seems weird that while BBO runs fine whenever AOL runs fine, and I can log into BBO without even opening the AOL window, that whenever the AOL window lags, the BBO window also lags simutaniously.

 

Thanks!

I'm not sure I understand your confusion. Both BBO and AOL need to use the broadband connection. If it's having problems, it will affect anything that uses it.
