Ok, first off this issue has only just started this week. I have not changed anything on my network. It has started out of the blue.

Router: Linksys WAG54G2 ADSL2+
Computers: Desktop (Wired, Vista), Desktop 2 (Wireless, XP)
Xbox 360: Bridged Connection to Desktop 2.

Issue:
Ok, The first time it happend i thought it was a little mishap, the internet disconnected with the wireless. So there was no wireless or internet. but on the XP machine the wireless network was visible when clicking 'View Available Wireless Networks' but everytime i tried to connect it would just idle and then close (wouldn't Connect). So i decided to do these things.
Step 1: Turned router off then back on
Step 2: Waited 1 minute and connected without an issue.

THEN 40 minutes later it happens all over again! I restarted the router about 7 times today! Ive tried a hard reset (Done that twice) Changed wireless channels. I have no 2.4ghz phones, baby monitors only a wireless mice connected to desktop 2 ( ive tried removing the wireless mouse and taking the batteries out and putting it in a different room still didn't have an effect.

there is only 1 other wireless network around (unsecure) it is not accessible and as i said before changed the wireless channels to see if that wireless network was interfeering. still no luck..

Im getting rather annoyed :confused:
So if you guys/girls have any tips or a step by step walkthrough it would be appreiciated.
If you need anymore information please ask.

Thanks, Robbie

It could be that there is a wireless phone station close to the router blocking the signals. It's a common problem
 
I've Fixed It, All i did was remove the ports i had opened for the xbox and disabled UPnP then put my xbox's IP address in DMZ and it made the whole network work with no disconnections? Very wierd.
 
the same thing is happening to my computer now.. but the difference is that I am loosing my connection if I use chrome.. but it didn't happened before when I am using FF.. what do you think is the problem? not really sure what I did wrong?
