| | Vista disconnecting from internet Hello, I've just purchased a second laptop and this comes with Vista. However, although I can connect to the internet the connection seems to get dropped after a while. Is there a setting that I can make that will keep me connection until I decide to end the session? Many thanks. -- Ian D Anderson |

If so, is the ethernet NIC disabled? If not, try disabling it in device manager. Or... if you're using an ethernet NIC and have a wireless NIC too, try disabling the wireless NIC. Good luck! Lang |
