RE: MSN Messenger and AOL BroadBand
Are you using MSN Messenger 6 or 7.
I have exactly the same setup as you (minus the laptop - I have a desktop PC instead) and I haven't noticed MSN connection dropping out.
If you're on MSN 6, you could try a program called MSNServers which changes the server which connects you to MSN. I don't have a link for it, search the forum, someone may've attached it to their post.
Are you using a firewall? If so, certain ports may be blocked - which can lead to problems with some internet related programs.
Also, some people I believe report that if their MSN has messenger plus, they sometimes experience dropouts on their connection to msn only. If you have messenger plus included with MSN messenger - try uninstalling it and use MSN and see if it drops out.
Hope this helps
