Default internet problem

hey guys i'm having trouble with my internet....on my desktop i have a wireless connection setup but its really close to the router...practically next to it...so i also connected it directly to the router. however...when i turn on my computer for a long time...for some weird reason i would lose connection to the internet and i would need to restart my computer in order to reconnect to the internet. i have tried disabling the wireless internet connection and reparing the connection but it never works. can anyone help me on this?

If your system is the host pc you may need to use a Lan or other type of addin card for having a direct connection to the router. This is something you would to ask the ISP about. See if they have an alternative other then using the wireless since you are seeing problems with it being too close. The router itself is probably geared for wireless connection only.

which router is it?

Try only using the wired connection, disable the wireless. AND update the firmware.

Were you running any antivirus utilities when first installing the router? One common problem seen is the corruption of Winsock. You can grab a Winsock repair utility that will fit on a 3 1/2" floppy at http://www.spychecker.com/program/winsockxpfix.html
