About ten minutes after I connect to a wireless network, if I've been idle, I try to navigate and find my connection has been lost. When I attempt to reconnect, the computer doesn't find any wireless networks available, it's like the wireless radio is off. I've tried turning the wireless radio off and on, but that does not work. The only way to fix this is to restart, which is a pain. Any suggestions?

Open Device Manager, open the properties on your ethernet card, click the Power tab, and deselect "Allow the computer to turn off this device to save power". If you use a USB connection to a modem or router, do the same thing to the USB ports.
