My LAN is connected to the internet through the local area connections on my
laptop, well it just acts like it wont work sometimes (every 15 mins or so).
I've reloaded and repaired the connection and checked all the settings on it.
I had my cable modem tested also, what else is there that could be causing my
computer to think it is still online but not let me access the internet?
Thanks
 
Hi,
Is there a second, unused, network card installed?

Or, you might have a spyware/parasite program trying to connect
periodically:
