Is NetworkManager running? Is it configured to manage your network
interface? If it's running but not configured, Gnome apps will think
you're disconnected even when there's no problem.
 
Okay, on checking today NetworkManager seems to be running and I am not getting any Network Connection warning box anymore. So I am presuming this was a temporary glitch, despite having done two resets and changing the network adapter.
 
Still stable an hour later :)
 
Many thanks,
 
Aaron
