*SOLVED*The reason my wireless adapter was shutting off periodically was indeed because of a Power Save Function. However I could not change the Power Save Function settings because I did not have Service Pack 3 installed for Windows XP, I only had Service Pack 2. After I installed Service Pack 3, I was able to change the settings and I am no longer having any connection problems.
Thank you.

Most of you will probably think I am a complete idiot since I did indeed post a guide to fix most wireless problems. However there is still one problem I need an answer to: It seems when I leave my computer inactive running silkroad, my wireless connection will just plainly stop functioning. I'm still connected to my modem, I just don't have any internet access.
I have searched google for hours. I did find some useful information, but not a solution.
This problem is not being caused by a Power Save Function. As my adapter does not have any options for Power Saving.
My theory would be this might have something to do with too much memory or CPU being used for silkroad and it's causing my system to ignore my wireless adapter. Or maybe there are too many packets built up in MSN or Silkroad itself. I'm not sure about these theories but, they're all I can come up with.
This is EXTREMELY frustrating while trying to play on Athens without a premium. Every time I get dced I have to spend another 1-2 hours logging in.
I'm using a Linksys WMP11 "Instant Wireless-B PCI Adapter" and a Belkin Pre-N Wireless Router.
I would GREATLY appreciate it if any of you could help me fix this.
Thank you.
