EVERYTIME I log into EQ for the first time of a gaming session, I lose
connection after about 5 minutes of play. I have to log off my ISP
reconnect and load back up EQ then I'm fine for the rest of the time.

ANYONE have any idea why this may be happening? It seems to me like
more
of an ISP problem since I have to log off of my isp to reconnect to EQ
but
who knows..."

Wow, the exact same thing happens to me. In fact, last night, I was
swimming to Halas, but before I got there, I was disconnected from my
ISP. THIS HAPPENS EVERY DAMN NIGHT, WITHOUT FAIL. Luckily, i was able to
log back on in time not to drown.

I usually just connect to my isp and surf for 5 to 10 minutes before
logging onto EQ. But I shouldn't frikken have to do that, right?

What's most frustrating is the message I see when I've been
disconnected: "Your connection has been terminated. Do you wish to
reconnect?"

Well, NO SHIT Sherlock!

Grrrr.
