I'm accessing the Net through a RoadRunner cable connection.  It is 
routed through a MacSense router to a 2400 w/OS8.6 and a Win95 laptop.

While the Win95 box maintains its connection without a problem, the 
2400 will often act as if the connection is barely awake...or 
disconnected. This usually happens after I haven't used it for 
awhile, e.g., overnight, sleep...or in some cases just being away 
from the keyboard for awhile.

I've tried setting TCP/IP for both "active" and "load only when 
needed", but it doesn't seem to make any difference.  It's not 
resetting the DHCP connection, though sometimes I can 'Renew DHCP' 
and get things going, other times even the connection to the router 
crawls and I can't bring up the router interface via Netscape...but 
the Win95 path is unaffected.

It seems to be a Mac problem, but I can't figure out what other 
setting might be causing a problem.

Thoughts anyone?

Thanks....
