It happens on both OS. I tried disconnecting on n900 then connect to internet via PC, the problem still remain.

I tried again with unplugging all the USB except n900, the problems still remain. I know there is nothing wrong with Service Provider because my area is 3.5g always on and when I using the same network with modem stick, the connection did not drops. And the connection on the phone is 24/7 so the phone is fine too.

I think it just a matter of between the phone and the pc. So far I am praying and hoping my connection wont drop after writing this post. Does anyone have the same problem.?

But the problem is the disconnection. I hope someone can solve it.

if you type any command requiring root permission it willnot ask for password . so inorder to ping google.com do as follow :
open xterminal
type:
sudo gainroot
ping google.com

when u set the usb mode in mad developer to g_ether and plug the n900 in your pc a message will popup asking to choose pc-suite or mass storage , dont choose anything , simply tap outside the message , after doing this a window will pop up on your screen searching for a driver , if you installed maemo-pc connectivity on your pc , the driver should be present already , if you don't want to install it , u can use the driver from the usb networking wiki-windows section .

sorry i missed that in my original post
