Another source of info could be when they connection fails open a terminal and type 'dmesg', it should give you some info about what just happened. Also you can try 'tail /var/log/messages' and 'tail /var/log/syslog' for more info. One of these may tell you what just failed and caused the network connection to drop out. -Gav -- ubuntu-uk@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-uk https://wiki.kubuntu.org/UKTeam/
