1.Tried connecting it directly to one PC for a few hours and didnt go down - but does sometimes stay up for a few hours so cant really be sure if that made a difference

2.Router is wired - i will try only rebooting the router next time it goes

3.All the PCs on the network are affected. MSN etc kicks you and web pages dont load until the connection comes back by itself or the modem is rebooted - it usually takes 10-15 mins to come back by itself

Also i had a problem with the DHCP server the other day for the first time - all the PCs said "limited or no connectivity" and we all had the weird ip address "169...." After about 20 mins of rebooting router/modem the DHCP thing fixed itself
