If you are using a NAT router/firewall or software I would not worry about
disconnecting. I am not sure where you are trying to disconnect but you could try
disabling your network adapter in networking connections. If that is what you are
having a problem with try rebooting the computer. Other options are to shut down the
computer or turn off your cable modem. Also check Event Viewer for any clues if it is
an operating system problem. --- Steve
