Well, that would be a reason why you can't connect - you wouldn't be connected to the modem/router. Perhaps you need to find out why it keeps disconnecting your LAN connection. I remember I had a setting where mine would automatically be disabled, but I can't remember how or why it was configured that way. Maybe someone has an idea.

o, that sounds like it could be the same for my problem

I think in my case I was using my Dad's computer as a gateway, and when his computer wasn't on when mine booted, the LAN connection was disabled. I've got a router now, so I don't have to worry about it anymore. I don't know if your situation is similar.
