Oops. forgot to mention, I am using OS 10.3.9. Recently, I also got a wireless connection. I only use my account at home.

Thanks,
Danielle

Danielle,

Sounds to me like a problem with your network settings. Try creating a location optimized for home and one optimized for work (in addition to "automatic"). Check and see the machine is picking up the new IP address correctly in each location. My PowerBook switches seamlessly among work, home and disconnected as it wakes from sleep, so it should work for you, too.

You didn't mention your OS?

Dan

I have an iBook G4/800/256/384 - 12 inch screen
I also have 256K DSL, a Quest DSL Modem and a D-Link video phone (which does not work at the moment).

When I leave for work in the AM, I close all my programs and put the iBook to sleep. When I come home, I try to open up Yahoo! IM and/or Firefox, but they will not open. The the little beach ball spins endlessly and the connection times out and I have to restart in order to use the programs. Sometimes I will leave the programs open and just put the machine to sleep. Same thing happens. Needless to say, I an getting real tired of having to restart all the time. I though t it was supposed to be more efficient to put it to sleep, rather than turn it on and off all the time?
