Windows reboot on internet connection lost

by born.thirsty Jul 22, 2007 4:46PM PDT

Hi,

I would like to know if there is software or some other way of monitoring your internet connection, so that if it disconnects, then windows/software waits an allocated time period and reboots the computer automatically ?

I have a remote PC that automatically starts an internet connection when the PC powers up, but I am using a wireless internet modem and when there is no signal, the modem drops the connection, but does not try and start it again...

Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks.
