Default Internet Connection Disconnects PT 7.3 LE

Win XP Pro. Core 2 Duo. Running an Mbox 2 (USB) with PT 7.3 LE. At some point the internet connection disconnects. It is DSL via USB and the signal is getting to the tower....

Why would it disconnect with PT 7.3 use.
Symptom is that when I try to view a page, the computer says there is no connection.

I have to restart.

Ooops..posted this in the mac forum!

It is recommended that you disable any wireless or network connections when using Pro Tools.

Ah, I see, yes.

Now how do most people work with that?
I use the internet to download updates and plug-ins, and to collaborate.
Do you actually disable the network connection and only enable it when you need it?

Thank you!

That clarifies it...thank you, Dogcode.

Do you use any application to manage all the disables and enables or do you do it manually?

Thanks.

Here's how I do it.
In Local Area Connection Properties, (Control Panel > Network Connections > right click on your Local Area Connection and choose Properties) select " Show icon in notification area when connected". That puts an icon on your start bar always visible when the net is enabled you can use as a quick disconnect.
Just right click and "disable".

To make re-connecting easy, make a shortcut to Network Connections for your desktop or quick start bar. Click on it, double click the disabled Local Area connection and it's enabled and you're back online.

Enable notice in the Notification area for quick disable, put Network Places shortcut in the quick launch....

Perfect, thank you.
