This issue has been going on for a couple of weeks. Today I even installed a new modem, but I still get failures when trying to connect to internet (may or may not be a modem issue). Pattern is same as previous: I connect to SC, then within minutes I get a data interruption and the status background goes yellow. Then seconds, or minutes later it goes green again and data updates. This interruption sequence can happens even with all modem lights in normal status.

I copied the log, but this is all that is there:

This also is very different from even a couple of days ago when the log would give detailed connectivity process using dozens if not hundreds of rows.

So, what gives with the log? You are not going to be able to trouble shoot anything with the above general readout. Is there a new way to run the log?

Refer to:
CQG Trading Platform Service: Frequent Server Disconnections when Using CQG

Our recommendation is to get off CQG if you can. We recommend CTS in this case but only if you use the low-cost connection model. The documentation linked above describes this.

Also, we are quite certain this is a CQG networking issue. There really is no other logical explanation for it.
