Are you able to continue to surf when this happens, does it stop what you
are doing or is there something you must do to restore connection to
continue to surf, download or whatever you happen to be doing.
Is this a recent issue, if yes, you might try using System Restore to take
up back to a time prior to when this began. Start\All
Programs\Accessories\System Tools\System Restore.
Is there anything you might have installed just prior to this starting to
happen.
On cable you are always on line but given that your connection is wireless,
your setup may simply be detecting system the system being idle as being
offline. Note, if no information is being sent over the wireless
connection, the system may detect that as being offline.
I'm not familiar enough with wireless to give you a good answer or even to
know if this is normal for a wireless connection something you should have
mentioned in your original post. You might want to take this to the
microsoft.public.windows.networking. wireless newsgroup.
