Dead Network

[Shoshannah Forbes]

Every time the computer is left to manage it's own business (for example, stay on during the night), it looses it's network.

System setup:
Dell inspiron 7000 laptop
Mandrake 9
10/100 3com PCMCIA Network card

As far as I can tell, APM is off.
I can not connect to anything- ping to the dhcp server (the ADSL router) doesn't work either.
The light on the Network card is on- but it is on the 10 MB instead of on the 100 MB as it should.

any ideas?

Thanks
