any macbook geeks about?

what in the name of hughton do i need to do to stop my internet connection dropping off every time i leave my sodding macbook for more than 5 minutes? every time i have to go into network preferences and go through a gazillion keystrokes just to get back on and it's getting on my tits. is it a problem with the router perhaps? i haven't done any updates on the macbook itself but i had to re-set my router because the nice man in india that works for BT told me too.

i've done the usual olfactory doodahs up the usb and that

and, if you are even contemplating a witty reply then please make it very very bloody witty.
