The only thing that would cause this for sure is if both toons were the same account. If that isn't your issue then...
Whne you say "the internet dies" does that mean you could not go to a website? Your router catches fire and explodes?
Can you expand on your issues?
Has mice? Or fluffy bunny rabbits near by? Or whatever can bite through cables? :P

WoW requires an internet connection to work, so if your "internet" really died, that is your problem.
Another poster asked if you could go to any webpages. If so, do you have random disconnects there as well?
Things to check (assuming you aren't paying for 1 account and trying to log in 2 characters from it):
1. your network connection on your pc (small computer icon in lower right by the clock).
If that says you have limited or no connection, then it could be your network card, router, or the modem..or your ISP.
2. if your icon says you are connected, great... do you have a router?
If you do have a router, check to see if there are any patches to update the firmware (might as well, if you are looking for problems).
3. If you don't have a router..are all the "right" lights on, on your modem? You might need to talk to your ISP.
Good luck with your internet! ;)

I guess the other person had a good one, you have two seperate accounts right?
you need to validate your internet connection, if you have DSL run one of the speedtests like DSL speed test ('http://www.speedtest.net/')
try opening a DOS cmd prompt and setup a ping to somewhere like yahoo ( ping -t yahoo.com ) then start your copies of wow and see if your internet dies.
Try un-overclocking your video card and/or motherboard, try disabling all of your addon's just for this test.
per say, you could have a bad internet, bad ram, bad video card, weak power supply.
good luck.
