I am having the same problem, when my Outlook is running I will periodically
lose connection to the internet. I have to disable and then renable my lan
connection to restore my internet. This only started happening when I
started using Outlook and it only happens when I have Outlook open. Thank
you in advance for any information you can provide.
 
What do you have set under your account properties for the connection type?
It should be LAN and set to not disconnect after a send/receive.

Check to make sure you are not set to work offline!
Check the send and recieve properties and where are your PST Files Located,
locally or on a server? if on server make sure the server is not causing the
problem!

I have made sure that I am not set to work offline. My PST Files are located
on my local hard drive. The thing about this loss of connection is that I
will be activily going from website to the next with my Outlook running and
will then when I am going to the next page to veiw on my browser is when I
find I have lost connection. I get no warning except a failed to send and
recieve from Outlook. Thank you.

when your outlook goes offline, can you still acess the internet? if not it
seems like a dodgy network card! are you running Antivirus? firewall?
The only other time i have had this problem is when the PST File has been
corrupted! in the office directory you can find the following, ScanPST, use
this to see if there are any corruption on the PST file! The only other thing
i can think of, is another device is using the same ip address which in turn
will knock one of the devices off the network! Anyone else having this
problem on you network?

Well I ran the scanpst and it did find a problem and repaired it. That was
two days ago and I have not had the problem since. I wanted to thank you for
all the help.
