We have had the same problem for about a month now.  Running XP home edition on an 
HP Pavillion 220N.  Motorola surfboard modem hooked to Linksys WRT54GS (LAN and wireless 
G) router.


The router is new and the connection was fine for about 20 days.  Then suddenly the 
HP (which was the primary computer when Comcast hooked up the connection) would lose 
connection.  At the same time, however, a laptop computer using a wireless card could 
access the internet via the router.  So I am thinking this has something to do with 
the HP/XP configurations?


Sometimes disabling and enabling again the LAN connection icon in the network connections 
help (but not always).  Sometimes right click on "repair" on the icon helps (but 
not always).  Once, moving the Lan connection to another slot on the router helps 
(again but not always).


Anyone come up with a solution to this?  Maybe we will have to go with the initial 
suggestion of the priest ....
