Two computers network use Ethernet switch. One computer connected to Internet via Actiontec DSL modem. No problem with WinXP but other computer using Vista x64 OS always loses "Local Area Connection". Easy solve as I since computer diagnoses and states you have no LAN and I reset. But should not have to constantly reset the LAN. Turned off firewall and still happens.
Here is how To fix this problem on Vista:
1) Click start --> Control Panel --> Network and Sharing Center
2) In the left-hand panel, choose Manage Network Connections
3) In the dialog box which appears, choose "Local Area Connections" (or whatever your connection is which handles both local LAN traffic and Internet), right-click then Properties.
4). Click Continue if you get a UAC warning, then uncheck the box beside Internet Protocol Version 6 (TCP/IPv6). Then OK.
It should resume the connection from Standby now.
