The WIFI modem in my van drops the internet connection after my Computer/TV has been idle for a while. I keep on having to continually reboot the modem to have the connectivity returned. I have followed the instruction manual regarding reconfiguration of the modems software however this has not rectified the problem. Has anyone had the same problem and can anyone suggest a fix.

Some modems have a screen time out / sleep mode that can be turned off or increased.
