I have a broadband, always-on internet connection, through Outlook Express
6. From time to time, I getb a message box headed, "Would you like to go
Offline?" In the box it says something beginning, "No Internet connection
is currently available..." With a box labelled "Work Offline" and one
labelled, "Try Again". If I click "Try Again" I get connected again but I
find this an irritation. Anyone know what's causing this?


Does your router have a log? What does it say about such incidents?
Is the ethernet (LAN?) light on the router still lit at these times of
failure?
If you dp start > run > cmd you will start a command line session.
What does it say if you do ipconfig/all
If it's interesting and you want to save the result to a file do:
cd [directory you want]
ipconfig/all>log.txt

Close the command line session with exit.

You can open the log.txt with (say) notepad then cut/paste text.

I don't have any logs, I'm not sure bwhich light on the router is the LAN
light and I'm definitely getting out of depth (and class!) here. Thanks to
everybody who responded and thanks for taking the time.
