Rick, I get a similar problem on my 701C occasionally. Finally I
realized it had something to do with when I plug it in or unplug the
adapter during the same session. For some reason it thinks I'm using the
modem or some such.
The solution for me has been to either *leave* it plugged in (or
unplugged) and/or reboot it when I get that message.
PITA, I know, but I don't know of another way.

Women often ask, "What do men really want, deep in their souls?"
The best answer--based on in-depth analysis of the complex and subtle
interplay of thought, instinct, and emotion that constitutes the male
psyche--is that deep in their souls, men want to watch stuff go 'bang'.
