Mac Laptop using Airport dropping connection

[jjb]

Hi Alan,

Not a way to fix the problem after the lost connection but you may be 
dropping the connection if you have Energy Saver set to put the computer 
to sleep as it shuts down the airport and network card as well. I have 
had this happen and have had to move all networked computers to Never 
sleep when inactive and the problem went away. These computers were not 
using WiFi but wired.
