Have you made sure that the networking hardware is ok? NICs checked (if fitted), switch ports swapped to see if anything changes? If only one PC out of 3 is dropping then I can't see it being the router but a dodgy switch port could cause problems.
Why is the IP static? Is there a reason why you aren't assigning IP's automatically?
