Internet Connection Problem

[WilliamP]

I have two computers with just about the same software. This one is connected directly to the Router. The other is wireless off the router. This one will loose the internet connection if it is idle for a while. Sometimes it will stay connected but usually it won't. This computer has Zone Alarm Free firewall. The other has an old Norton firewall. Also this one has Process Guard and the other doesn't. So I feel that either Zone Alarm or Process Guard is the problem. How can I find out?

Hi,
Some firewalls can cut the internet connection if the computer is idle.
These options usually go under - keep active in the screensaver mode, maintain / cut connection while idle etc. Try to find that one.
