Although my laptop shows that the wireless connection is working, I have to go to "repair" under internet connections after being off the internet for awhile.

Pain in the neck!

Is there a "basic" way to fix this problem?

I'm not as smart as most of you in this forum.

Thanks
Barbara

On your laptop go into your network settings and click onto your network adaptor you will find that your Wireless connection might be listed as "log off when idle" or "log off to save power", just un-tick this/these box(s) and then re-boot. Hope this works for you. Please repost if you have more problems.

and, using xp pro, went into network connections for lan connection. didn't see a check box for "log off when idle". i did find a check box that was marked which allowed the computer to disable the network adapter to save power. is this something similar or different?
