Question Connection lost; To reconnect reboot the modem

Hmm, this is weird.
Sometimes I get the much discussed "Disconnected/No files available" and the red dot at the bottom left corner with the usual "if I click the Connect selection under File, the dot turns green for a sec then red again no matter how much I try to connect" and the connection indicator for the internet says that I'm connected.
I found that sometimes I have to quit Limewire and restart the app to get the connection working again, while other times I have to quit Limewire then end the internet connection and then restart the connection and Limewire. Other times I have to actually quit Lime, end the Internet connection, and then TURN THE ADSL MODEM OFF, then back on again, etc... to get the Lime connection back on again.
Why is that?
