Loosing network connection

I have a W98SE WS (dell8100) on Network with a NT40 server. It has run fine since last Aug. Now about 15 minutes after it boots up it looses its network connection. "My Computer" freezes and I have to End it with Task Manager which wipes out most of the programs loaded in the system tray. I have updated and reinstalled the NIC and driver. Played with MSconfig to try to isolate the problem. Disconnected and remapped all the network drives (one at a time). Any suggestions??

Try: NET CONFIG SERVER /AUTODISCONNECT:-1
on your NT 4.0 server. Standard this is set to 15 minutes. -1 is Timeless.
