Internet connection downtimes - is it affect?

[FHeizer]

hi guys!

could someone help me in this question?
today I got my first miner (600 ghs), but when i finally started mining, i found that my network connection is unstable and is lost often, let's say every  15-30 minutes (sad, but i'm living in such place of uk ).

what do you think, how it may affect on process of bitcoin mining?

thanks!

This may be happening because your Internet connection isn't fast enough to handle the high rate of share submissions. Two ways to improve this situation:

• Make sure you use the Stratum protocol to connect to your pool over the Internet, and not the older, less-efficient "getwork" protocol. If your mining device does not support Stratum then run a Stratum proxy (bfgminer or mining_proxy) on your PC and point your mining device at it.
• The pool you are mining in may have a setting to adjust the difficulty on your miner, or it may auto-adjust it (a.k.a. "vardiff"). Try increasing the difficulty for your mining device the rate of share submissions is decreased to a more manageable level.

You won't be able to mine very well. Mining is internet dependent.
