Hello,
When my computer goes to sleep, when I start it back up, my internet shows it is connected. But nothing works. I get connection errors and also my email does not work. Will not download or send mail. If I restart, then everything is fine. I have a cable internet.
Any suggestions are greatly appreciated!

Thanks for the idea. I tried it and below is a cut from the screen when I did the inconfig's. I tired to copy it here but it would not let me paste it in for some reason.
Anyway, it did not work. I still had to reboot my computer.
Everything was working good, until I loaded Yahoo Messanger. Is there something from it that could be causing my problem?
Thanks again
I believe that it has something to do with Yahoo Messenger 10. When I unloaded it, I quit having this problem. I seem to have another problem after doing so though. After doing so hyperlinks in my emails quit working. I found that if you load up Firefox, and unload it somehow it fixes it. I do not know about the unloading part, but it did start working after I loaded Firefox.
Hello,
I thought that I had this cured but it is back again. I have the power options setting on my computer as power saver. When my computer goes to hibernate, my internet connection is lost until I reboot. I at first thought that it was something wrong with Yahoo Messenger, but now I do not believe so. I'm thinking that it is something with the system going to sleep.
My system is a Dell XPS 710, I am running Win 7 64 bit. All else seems fine, just this problem.
All suggestions are appreciated. It is a big inconvenience having to reboot all of the time.
Thanks,
Greg
Thanks Jonathan, It did have the box "Allow the computer to turn off the device " checked. I am trying it unchecked. Hope this works.
As for the drivers, as near as I can tell I am up to date on them. I did have a lot of trouble with the sound driver at first, but I was able to get one that would work with Win 7 and now all is well on the sound front!
Thanks
Greg
