Hope someone can answer this Q, it's kinda tricky mates, be warned.
Sometimes when I'm on the Internet surfing (I have cable, ok could be worse, 1.5 MB Download stream :)), but sometimes it just pauses or somethin' when surfing Servers couldn't be found (like a thread on this forum, so I know they exist), ICQ get's no messages and stuff, the internet is gone. But when I do Start, Run, "Winipcfg", en click Refresh (or renew or something) the internet connection wakes up again.
Does anyone how I can make something similar just to wake up the internet (by Refreshing/renewing the Ethernet Card or something)
Thanx for your attention.

This isn't much help but I had the same thing on windows98se
I downloaded a patch from Microsoft.com . The link I had was from my cable companies web page so I no longer have it , but you problem can be solved so I guess thats good news . Sorry I Didn't have the link .

Thanks for the reply...
I knew it's possible because I can do it by hand (by refreshing the Ethernet card or something in winipcfg
but I want to automate it.
I'll do a search on Microsoft.com, thanx.
Anyone else with solutions? thanx!

Did anyone ever find the automated answer? I have Verizon DSL and get the same thing once in a while (before WinIpCfg even says that the lease has expired).
If it matters, I'll need it for Win98 and WinME.
