need help

hi there. I try do my best to make sense.

what happened is, I have Dell 2400 and cable modern (comcast) runs on as well. All the time, when I surf internets and chat via aim. I left from my computer to somewhere, few hours later, I came back. I opened the internet (i have firefox) The internet isn't running. It's like page not found, but my aim still running. I did repair network connection and still not working. So I have to restart my Dell everytime. It kinda annoys me. Do u have any idea how to solve it? (yes, i tried w/ IE7 and still same problem)

I hope it's helpful information for you guys to figure out, here is

    Does your computer go into standby or hibernate mode?  If so, that's probably where the problem lies.  Desktop computers are notorious for not behaving well or recovering well from standby and/or hibernate.   It is usually a problem with drivers that are incompatible or not well designed for use with these power savings modes.   If this is the case, simply change the power savings modes to turn off the monitor and hard drive after a specified period of time and to never go into Standby or Hibernate.

    i checked on power options properties...what i see is "turn off monitor: after 20 mins" and turn off hard disks: after one hrs" System standby and hibernates :never" so I think it might be hard disks. so now I mark it to "never". hopeful its help. THANK FOR YOUR REPLY!!
