Loost internet/network connectivity often

[Jaheel22]

I'm using Windows XP Pro on my laptop and use High speed internet to surfe internet. My computer keep loosing internet connection after 10 - 15 mintues. When it looses connection, i cannot ping like

http://www.yahoo.com

but ipconfig works fine, i mean shows DNS server, iP address etc.

Then i use Windows XP's Network diagnostic tool and it restores the connection.

Any idea what might the problem ?

Thanks.

Can you provide some more info:

ADSL or cable broadband?
How is the modem connected? USB or ethernet?
Are you connected through a router?
Have you tried pinging websites via their IP address rather than URL?
Are responses received to pings to your router (if you have one) and modem?
Could you post the results of a traceroute to

http://www.yahoo.com?
