Why do I lose my DSL connection when I start up my computer?
I like to shut down my computer when I am done. Upon starting up later, I often, but not always, lose my DSL connection. The LAN light goes out. Sometimes I can trick it into coming back by rebooting the modem supplied by DSL provider. Other times, rebooting my computer combined with rebooting modem works. Sometimes it won't and I have to keep fooling with it until finally LAN is established. Took an entire day yesterday to do this.
I have Windows Vista OS and McAfee security programs. I have the Windows Defender firewall off and am using the McAfee one.
Any ideas? I like to shut my computer down due to kinda dusty conditions while I remodel the kitchen.
Note: It's not wireless and it's not Verizon.
Uh.....what's a security lock? For the cable.

Try changing your moden by calling Verizon Wireless. Or some one might be picking up your singal on your LAN and you probably have a bad connection to the Web. Or your cable wires might be the problem. I don't know quite exactly what but check your cable wires, And put a Security Lock on your LAN, or just change the modem by asking The Verizon Wireless Company. Or when your computer says it has no connection, go to your control panel and go to your Network settings and then go to Advanced settings and then look for Repair. Then it will try to repair your connection. There is nothing wrong with your CPU or hardrive so its ok. So good luck. Oh yea its a bit better if you use windows firewall especially with Windows Vista, McAffe is great to detect viruses and bugs and scanning for them.
