Do you connect via DHCP or with a static IP? If DHCP, check to see what your lease time is -- you may have to re-up the dhcp client. If static, you may have other problems. Can you ping your own interface after coming out of suspend? Maybe you've got a hardware problem. You might have to try swapping in another NIC as a test. - C
