is this 1.7.4? or the beta 1.8? if the beta, it has that problem... if 1.7.4... is it while the room is quiet that they drop?

no. it is when they are talking.... room is hardly quiet. Normally about 30ish people are there, and then they start dropping all at once. about 26 out of 30.

leave a ping running (start > run > ping www.google.co.uk -t) and when everyone drops check if the pings suddenly stopped at the same time, this would identify if it's a connection issue or WCS (some routers don't like primary connections for example)

I have experienced trhis often, but think it is net connectivity, not wcs.

I run 3 systems on 3 different IPs in my room. My 3 clients stay in the room while others drop out, which makes be think it is the link from my isp to the outside world.
