Hi DGardiner,
I'm sorry to hear you're having problems with one of our modems.
The
error 631 indicates that the connection has been terminated by something on your side of the connection, rather than ours. This could be the modem itself, or Windows.
If it was us disconnecting for any reason, for example, due to poor coverage, a timeout, or using the wrong APN, then you'd usually get an Error 619 or Error 31, indicating that the remote computer has terminated the connection.
Since in your particular case the connection is being terminated at your end, it suggests that the coverage, although poor, is not the real cause of your issue.
Since the modem has recently been replaced, we can also rule this out as a problem. That only leaves the computer itself, or Windows. Have you installed any new Anti-Virus or Firewall software recently which would coincide with this issue? The fact that you only get disconnected when you try to open a new web-page would seem to back-up the fact that this is a software issue.
Unfortunately this type of problem is outside of our normal scope of support, and so we'd strongly recommend having this looked at by a PC Specialist. Failing that, if you have another computer you could test the modem in that, and would confirm the problem if you no longer get this error message.
Keep us updated, and I wish you the best of luck in getting to the bottom of this one
