There's a lot of chat about Tiscali traffic shaping their network and blocking traffic on port 26000. This makes you disconnect frequently if you play Eve Online.
As this seemed to be a Tiscali only problem, I disregarded it as being a possible reason for my disconnects. After all, I am with Virgin Media Cable - not even ADSL. And not the same company.
I was wrong.
I went to various sites testing port 26000 on my PC and it was closed. I checked my router, 26000 was forwarded to my pc. Firewall had an exception rule allowing 26000 too.
