LAN dissappear

I have broadband internet at home. There are times when I try to use it my
LAN Icon dissapears from the tool bar as well as from Networking & Sharing in
Control panel. Then maybe the next day it reappears. ofcourse i can't browse
at this time because it will say no available networks. I have 2 vista
laptops and they behave this way. I have 1 windows 2000 which works fine -
no problems.

Please help with any info to stop this.

If both Vista computers have the same issue. I would check the router
firmware first.
