Why does Vista cut my Internet connection

Guest

I´m unsing Vista now for 2 months and since then I didn´t had much problems.
Now for some unknown reason my internet connection stops working from time to
time. In the beginning it was only once a day but now it´s about every 20
minutes and it only works again after a reboot. First I thought it was the
Router I´m using but as I can ping webserver through the router, use ICQ and
as my laptop under XP works without problems it´s got to be something on
Vista causing the problem. I´ve already scanned for viruses and Spyware but
didn´t find anything. Are there any logs regarding the internet conection?
Are there any known problems?
