If it has windows vista, you will need to get into the device manager and delete the network cards, then reboot. I don't know why, but it is pretty common for that to happen in vista.

I don't have any issues getting my network to stay up.... sounds like a personal issue to me.

if you recently did a driver update, then roll it back

sounds like when you're using "sleep" or stand by mode this seems to be happening?

- if so, then it's under power options, and network, and then there's a tab about keeping connection alive or something while in standby mode . . . just set it to always on.

If you're shutting down completely . . . and then on startup it's doing this? . . . then it's a driver error . . . then just delete the card, reboot and let windows find the card again on startup
