I'm new to macs but I recently purchased one and when i am connected to the internet every 15 or so minutes ill get this popup to stay connected to the net or not. And if im not at my pc and it pops up and i dont click stay connected it will disconnect me from the net. Can someone tell me how to stop this please?
 
Assuming you are using dialup
Open your System Preferences/Network pane. Click Show and choose internal modem
Click on PPP Options, and un-check the box for Disconnect if idle for x minutes, and also un-check Prompt every x minutes to maintain connection.

In theory, that will leave you connected until you choose to disconnect, or your ISP may also have a limitation.
