Assuming you've tried the traditional power cycle of the router and computer to no avail, there are a few things that could be causing this. From Start> Run type CMD

In the command prompt type "ipconfig" (without the quotes) and report what is shown for IP address, Gateway and DNS.

type "ping [# reported for IP Address]" and hit enter. report what shows

type "ping [# for GATEWAY]", enter, report

type "ping [# for DNS], enter, report

Hi, I am having the same problem. here is my info. Also, the only DNS info shown was my providers .com address

For IPv4 address

with 32 bytes of data:
bytes=32 time<1ms TTL=128
bytes=32 time<1ms TTL=128
bytes=32 time<1ms TTL=128
bytes=32 time<1ms TTL=128

Ping statistics
Packets: Sent = 4, Received = 4, Lost = 0 (0% loss),
Approximate round trip times in milli-seconds:
Minimum = 0ms, Maximum = 0ms, Average = 0ms



For Gateway address:

32 bytes of data:
bytes=32 time=2ms TTL=64
bytes=32 time=1ms TTL=64
bytes=32 time=1ms TTL=64
bytes=32 time=1ms TTL=64

Ping statistics
Packets: Sent = 4, Received = 4, Lost = 0 (0%
Approximate round trip times in milli-seconds:
Minimum = 1ms, Maximum = 2ms, Average = 1ms

I have a similar problem.

I have a laptop which, when connected wirelessly to the home network, will run fine for hours on end. I also have a desktop with wireless connection. If I turn on the desktop, it will connect to the network and run OK for about 5 minutes, then I lose my internet connection. The DSL light on the modem blinks continuously. If I shutdown the desktop, within a minute the DSL light goes steady and the laptop regains internet connection. Turn the desktop back on again - 5 minutes later I lose internet. Shut down the desktop - a minute later the laptop regains connection.

Any clues on the cause of the problem and, particularly, the solution will be gratefully received
