What can i do to fix this problem (I believe it is a router problem)? I can play youtube and other videos for about 3 minutes before it stops loading. I then fast forward the video a second ahead and then I can to continue to watch the video for another 3 mins without being interrupted. Same thing with games, BF3 for pc, I can play for about 3 mins and then disconnects me. Whats also interesting is that my xbox live works but when i try to join a party, it wont let me.

Extra info: Recently had a "technician" come to replace my router (thats why i think its a router problem because it wasn't doing this before).

I know a good amount about computers but internet is a little foggy for me, but it seems like it just stops sending or receiving data.

This happens over both wired and wireless connections. and it seems to be a computer specific problem.

Well i was thinking the router and my computer weren't communicating right; therefore couldn't it be the router specifically only targeting my computer because of settings or vice-versa? I thought the same last night and thought it was a driver problem, but nope all my drivers are updated. Remember this only started to happen when i got the new router.
