    For some reason, my laptop's internet stops working after it enters sleep or hibernate mode. I have to restart my computer to get the internet working which is annoying. Has anyone else encountered this? Suggestions?

    Probably a driver issue. Tried any older or newer versions of your network drivers?

    I'm running vista 64. This happens with both wifi and lan. I think I have the dell wifi card.
