It sounds very much that the IP address that had been assigned to your router MAC address was being DoS'd (denial of service) in some way, because as soon as you swapped to USB, and therefore obtained a new IP address the problem dissapeared.
Well, as I tried to describe, the problem still occurs when I bypass the router altogether, and plug the modem straight into the network card.

What could be causing the DOS? The last time it happened, it appeared to go on for a couple of days.
