Answer 1

It could be that you don't have a strong enough connection to your router. or you may be losing connection for a second during connection.
Can you once you have page cannot be displayed, type in google if it connects then you do have connection and its just your home page.
If not switch your router of and back on at the mains, this resets it.
Or try closer to your router if this works you need a stronger dongle (wireless card),
or can you connect with your Ethernet cable (the yellow one) plugged into the router and your lappy. if you can = stronger dongle.
If all this fails ring your supplier and have your details with you and your Ethernet cable, You may need to change your settings.
They will talk you through it one click at a time.
Good luck
