Win XP Network Connections Disconnect

[Flickerman]

Win XP Network Connections (Wired) Disconnect several times a day on 2 XP
computers. If I double click My Network places nothing happens. When I reboot
the pc's the system reconncts OK. This has been going on for a few weeks. No
new software has been installed, only automatic MS XP updates. I don't think
its the cable modem or router.

Hi
Look at the Power Saving configuration of the Network Cards, and Un check it
(I.e set the cards Not to save power).

Thanks,
I will try it and see what happens. Although to my knowledge I haven't
changed the settings in the past.
