Constantly dropping internet connection from modem

I have a macbook with OS 10.6.8. I use an ethernet cable and a cable modem. My MAC keeps disconnecting from the internet. Restarting the modem does not help. When I restart the MAC I can connect again. It is not the ethernet cable (it happens when I tried others), nor the modem (it does not connect after I restart it). It may help to note that I just relaced the HD and reinstalled the OS. Help

MacBook (13-inch), Mac OS X (10.6.8)

For some reason this is on the wrong forum.

What evidence is there that you are disconnected?

The internet will stop loading pages. Yet the modem will indicate no chages, meaning all the lights are still on, inlcuding the internet and the cumputer link lights. Any ideas?

Thanks

Do you have difficulties with other internet applications such as Mail or another browser or is this a Safari only issue?
