YES and I want to scream when it happens! I have cell broadband, on my laptop, too and sometimes you do not even have to completely loose your connection. You kind of invisably loose your connection and you get Page Cannot be Displayed. I have had that happen a couple times when responding on MyLot. That is the worst, cause even if you save what you type on the clip board you can't paste it. I still get that message saying that I can't paste until I have over 500 (due to spammers.) So, I end up giving up and not responding :o/. Wish me luck on hitting the submit button now.

Hey, Yea this has happened to me quite a few times. The last time it happened was when I was posting something on MyLot. I didn't realize that the Internet had disconnected from my computer, and as I went to post it, it said that the page could not be displayed. I was so annoyed! Happy Lotting!

YES. More often that one would like. Usually, when I'm on msn or something and talking to my friends about life and other depressing topics, it always seems to crash. Or when I'm trying to comfort someone online it seems to always disconnect. OH, and also, when I'm playing online games. Also, there was that time I'd just hit 'submit' on a reallllly long blog entry. I could go on for days. xD

LOL, yep! Several months ago, I started a couple of books I'm writing. One night, during a storm, I was working away on my computer and a power surge literally zapped my computer. Poof! Everything I'd written during the course of that day was gone. Geez was I ticked! Now I write my books on my manual typewriter and never lose a word.

The most frustrating time I ever lost the connection was when I was trying to buy something on ebay. I was waiting until the last minute to bid and then I lost the connection. When I went back on the item finished for like 10 dollars less then anything like it had finished. I couldn't find another one for the next week and by then it was too late as I was getting it for a present.

My internet connection is not fast. If I download big file, I need more than one hour. A week ago I download a big file (100 MB). When downloadee file reach 96 MB, my internet connection went out. Because that downloaded file doesn't support resume capability, I must retry from the beginning. It's hurt. I lost more time.
