loss of internet

    A runny lappy sounds nasty, leaky battery or swine flu maybe.:rotfl:.
    Assuming your Ethernet connection is solid,
    its possible you are getting interference with your wireless link, try changing the channel you are on.
    If you don't know how post the make and model of your Modem/router.
    That gum you like is coming back in style.
