I am running a Windows XP Pro. computer downstairs in my office and it is hooked up to my cable modem and the Router (DLink Wireless Router) and upstairs in my room I have a computer running on Windows XP Home Edition with a wireless Dlink DWL-650+ PCI card in the back of my computer. After I wake up to goto school my computer is connected to the internet through the wireless router and when I get back home from school I see that my internet connection in my room has gone down. And when I try to goto for example www.yahoo.com to see if I can connect or not it says Finding: www.yahoo.com for like 5 minutes or so and usually if it takes that long it means its not connected to the internet, so then I go downstairs to check to see if the other computer is connected and it is connected to the internet, so the only way I have figured out how to make my computer upstairs in my room get to connect back to the internet again is to unplug the Wireless Router from the AC/DC cable or whatever you call it for like 10 seconds flat and then re-plug it back and then click on the icon to see if its connected to the internet and then something says connect or cancel, so is there a way to by pass this all and make my internet connection on my wireless connection an ongoing internet connection so that I can like restart the internet connection every week?
