computer keeps dropping connection
Ok, here's my setup. I have two computers, getting a shared connection through a 4 port router. The first computer keeps its connection 24-7. I can move the mouse at any time, and I have a good connection. The second computer only keeps it's connection for about 20 mins or so after booting up, unless I actively use the connection. I can surf constantly for hours, but if I let it sit for a while, I have to reboot. I didn't have a problem with this computer when it was connected straight into the modem, but when I hooked it into the router, it started dropping connection like this. Can anyone help me find and fix this problem? I know, I know, switch to Firefox. But seriously, what can I do?
