When my Ti PowerBook wakes from sleep and entourage tries to get my mail, it tries to dial the modem instead of using the Ethernet connection. If I stop entourage and then try getting mail as few seconds later it then works ok.

Any ideas why OS X and entourage don't see the Ethernet connection when waking from sleep?

OS 10.2.4

OS X loses DCHP leases on sleep. You have to wait a little bit to get it back.
