this is just too weird. it is the laptop that looses the connection on 
the lan. around 8-8:30 pm every sunday. the router seems to be fine.
there is a connection after rebooting and i can get email - once. . 
.then i start bittorrent and it starts doing its' thing. then i hit get 
mail on thunderbird and the connection slowly peters out and dies. 
reboot and it works.
