Can you give us more details about how do you lose the network connection?
Do you get a pop-up that says that a network cable was disconnected? If so,
try a different/new network cable or try turning off media sensing.

Is your broadband connection via a PPPoE?
If so, there may be some settings in the PPPoE software that you use to
disable idel disconnect.
