XP SP2 cable modem, cable to wireless router.
I have just upgraded to ADSL2+, and find the speed just a little faster
but the connection sometimes slows down, and oft times drops off.
Other times the modem shows 4 lights (nettcomm) but if I have
<not> been surfing and idle for say an hour, I cannot connect to a
server.
I have to turn off the switch at the wall, and switch back on
to get connectivity again.
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".
You can do the same thing with a USB device by disabling the power
saving feature of all "USB Root Hub" entries.
