Losing your Internet connection and getting logged out indicates that something between your network adapter on your computer and the SL servers is not maintaining the connection (or fails to connect).  Two of the most common causes for this loss of connection are your router and/or modem needs rebooting (possibly one is failing but that's not common.......those two devices seem pretty bullet proof).  The other is a wireless connection to the Internet.

 

Rebooting your router and modem is easy and pretty painless.  Shut down your computer then unplug the devices from their electrical source and leave unplugged for 3 to 5 minutes.  Plug them back in and wait for the lights to settle to their normal blinking routine (about 30 seconds).  Boot your computer back up and if that was the problem you should be back in business.  This fixes the majority of conection problems that you discrkibed.

 

If you are using a wireless connection to your router you are subject to many different issues that can break you connection to your Internet.  Cordless phones, cell phone, garage door openers, someone's CB radio driving down the street, your neighbor tinkering with electronics in his basement, a piece of furniture you moved to a different wall blocking the signal to and from your router...........almost anything really.  Using an Ethernet cable (CAT 5e) eliminates those possible sources of interference.
