D-Link AirPlus Xtreme G Wireless Router -- Dropped Connection

[apw420]

Hello...

I have the above mentioned router. My desktop is plugged into it & my wifes laptop has a wireless connection.

I constantly get the "Local Area Connection Unplugged" message on my desktop and for the life of me I cannot figure out why it's happening. We called D-Link Customer Support a million times and every time they give us a new fix, it still doesn't help.

The connection is sporadic and prevents me from doing a lot of things. Any ideas why this might be happening??

We both have Windows XP -- I have a cable modem. Anything else you need ot know to help I can provide.

Thanks.
AW

This could be caused by many different things. The first thing I would do is try a new network cable. Fast and easy thing to try.

Does this happen only when your wife is connected?

Yes, happens when were both connected...but were both always connected.
I tried different wires...same problem.
