Internet connection loss

[sammytheman]

Hey fellas. When I start to run my pc from stand-by mode, most of the time I get this message at the taskbar saying "A network cable is unplugged", then 2-3 seconds later it says something like "Local Area Connection Speed:100Mbps". It keeps on repeating itself over and over again. I checked the cable and it is plugged. I even unplugged the modem from power for 2 mins then plugged it back in. Still nothing. Any help would be greatly appreciated, thanx

Doing a repair on the connection usually helps.

Is your router's DHCP server enabled?

Also, make sure that the Local Area Connection properties are chosen correctly:

> Control Panel
> Network Connections
> right-click on Local Area Conection
> click on Properties
> under the General tab, and in the "This connection uses the
following items:" window, select Internet Protocol (TCP/IP)
- however, to make it visible, you may need to scroll all the way
down using the scroll bar that is on the right
> click Properties
> Make sure that items "Obtain an IP automatically" AND "Obtain
DNS server address automatically" are both checked/selected.
> click OK to close all the window
> Reboot your pc to effect the changes made

DHCP doesnt matter in this situation, even with no DHCP server on the network, you are still connected to the network.

Anyways, I already replied to thsi thread somewhere else so please do not doubble post.

You could try reinstalling your network drivers... that worked for me when I had a similar problem.
