Keep losing Internet connection
I have this problem with Vista where it keeps dropping my internet
connection. I have gone as far as using a different card (I was using my onboard nic, and switched to a linksys pci nic card), and manually entering the ip and dns information under ipv4. Things go fine for awhile and then it loses connection and only restarting seems to aleviate to issue until next time. There seems to be no pattern or timing on the issue, its quite sporadic. When this happens, I cant even find connect to my router. I have tried a different router too. Help please, this is getting quite old.

Keep losing Internet connection
Well the problem is that the connection is fine for awhile and then just
drops for no apparent reason. I can surf fine all day and then in the middle of surfing the net, it just drops the connection; usually just drops the internet connection and not local network connection. So I have a hard time believing that the router is incompatible since it works most of the time. Router Linksys WRT54G Ver. 6.

Keep losing Internet connection
Hi,
I have the EXACT same problem. I recently discovered the power management settings may be the problem. I'll update you if I find a fix myself, meanwhile if anyone could help that'd be great.

Keep losing Internet connection
Hello,
If this is the same problem that I am having, then it is a Windows Vista issue and needs to be fixed. I have a dual boot system and periodically when I boot up into Vista I have no internet. If I then boot into XP everything is fine. I can boot back into Vista and I will still not have an internet connection. I go back into XP and...voila...everything is fine. I have a suspicion that this may have to do with the way that Vista handles errors and service interruptions. In any case, XP, 2000, and my Mac are having no problem connecting so Vista shouldn't either. Regards, Corey "Peter" wrote: Hi, I have the EXACT same problem.
