Q: If I do not use the internet for about 2 hours or more, the connection dies. According to the estimate of the connection is in order, according to the LEDs on the modem and the router Calbe, its fine, but it will not connect. I tried to disable the connection and to see if it would work, no go. If I restart the computer, works fine. This applies to both wired and wireless connections. I can not think of what changes when I restart, any ideas?

Re:Update: I checked the cable companies website, there is no disconnection for inactivity. I checked all the items in the menu for my router, found nothing. I can't access the menu for the cable modem itself, b/c i don't know the user name/password. I guess i'll have to call the cable company tomorrow. If anyone else has any ideas what could be causing this, please let me know. Thanks for the suggestions thus far.

One suggestion is to have bittorrent running and keep seeding for people. Another is to have a P2P program running……. These are all suggestions that won't fix your problem, but will help you avoid them.
Along the same lines, you could start running a Distributed Computing client, such as Seventeen Or Bust (http://www.seventeenorbust.com), and have it set to submit results gradually, therefore keeping your internet active. SB should send a 'block' every 3 or 4 minutes on your systems.

Re:I assume you are getting an IP address from your router. Check the DHCP configuration lease time. If the lease is set really low, I've seen problems like you describe. I would also check for the latest firmware for your router — my D-Link DI-524 had issues, though only on the wireless side.
I know you said cable modem, but since some people use the term generically, so –
If you are running DSL with a PPPoE connection, there are often settings in the router configuration to prevent you from being logged off.

Re:Do cable modems have a web interface for settings like DSL modems do? If so that would be the olace to set "always keep alive". If not disregard this drivel.
How to Make a Your Spiritual Connection
Re:In some combinations of specific Hardware and Windoes the Network Connection get lost when the computer goes into Power Saving Mode.
Otherwise, most Routers have a menu that defines Activity/Inactivity time span.
Find the entry in your Router and make sure that it set to keep the connection always alive.
