Hi all,
We’ve just changed over to a Dell Inspiron with Windows Vista and everything is fine except for the internet. I can use the Internet away no bother for about 20minutes then nothing. No webpages, no downloads, nothing. I’m going through a ZyXel Prestige 600 series modem but this worked fine under XP. Anybody have any ideas what could be causing this? The network card isn’t set to turn off after a certain amount of time so that’s ruled out.This is really bugging me as I’m only home at the weekends from college and I’m spending all my time on it.

When the Internet stops working I cant even ping the modem.

Any help greatly appreciated.
Thanks.
Pa
