Default New router disconnects online gaming

hi there, i have just been given a belking g router which i rigged up to my surfboard motorola modem. i have two computers connected to it but i noticed when i played my online game, i kept being disconnected after a few minutes. i am wondering is this because my ip address was anetwork one (192... etc) i know abit about computers but i have never used a router before this. i tried different cables, diffrent network cards etc but still happened. any idea what i can do? do i need 2 configure things as i justdid what the wizard told me.
any help is much appreciated.
cheers

You need to reset the router, and make sure everything's set to default. If it continues I don't know what to tell you, does the whole connection drop? If so it may be NAT related. I had a Netgear that had the same problem, and since you didn't buy this and it was handed to you it may be broken.
