| | Dropped Internet Connnection related to Base Filtering Engine I have two hard wired PCs running Windows Vista Ultimate. Every few hours, one of the two will drop their ability to connect to the internet "page not found". The other will work just fine. Rebooting the PC will fix the problem, though that's not the optimal solution. (I'm running the Trend Micro Internet Security Antivirus/Firewall package on one machine and the Windows Firewall on the other.) After much trial & error, I have found that I can restablish the internet connection by stopping and then starting the Base Filtering Engine. Is the service is the cause of the problem or a result of it? Can/should I disable this service? |

| | Re: Dropped Internet Connnection related to Base Filtering Engine I tried that, too. Does not help. Also used Microsoft's "diagnose and repair" function. It says there is a problem with the connection, tries to repair it by resetting the adapter, but ultimately fails. One other oddity: On one occasion I had a session of Virtual PC 2007 running in a window and accessing the internet. Then my Vista internet connection failed, but the Virtual PC connection kept going. How the heck does that happen?

| | Re: Dropped Internet Connnection related to Base Filtering Engine I agree that it is very weird. No power options are turned on for the NICs. I also can't locate anything in the Event Viewer indicating a problem. I did discover that the Internet Connection Sharing service was turned on and that the Base Filtering Engine interacts with that service, so I turned ICS off yesterday. Only time will tell if that's the solution to the issue.
