W2K Loosing Web Connection....

[sladewilson]

I have several computers on a small (12 computer) network. We all access a hub that in turn connects to a T-1 Router to the web. We are ALL running W2K Professional.

My problem is that a couple (3 computers) seem to loose connection to the web every hour or so. The other computers NEVER loose connection to the web. It's only these same 3 computers.

We all use a 192.168.0.xxx IP Scheme and there are no conflicts (I've checked closely).

If you reboot one of these 3 computers they go back online perfectly for another hour or so... sometimes they stay online all day sometimes they kick off about 45 minutes after a reboot. I can't put my finger on the problem.

Has anyone else experienced this before? What is a solution?

I have just this very minute posted the beginning of a threat to state the same problem with Windows 2000 Pro.
The connection just drops anywhere from 20 minutes to a day after going on-line. The only way I can bring the connection back is by restarting the computer.
