Wierd Internet Connection Problem

[s18000rpm]

after re-installing network driver, the problem came back.

& still i dont see that LAN Connection.

this time i didnt do anything with network properties (IP, DNS...), i can connect but rapidshare & few other sites dont load untill the modem is reset thru Windows.

--------edit-----------
WTH!!!

now its random

i didnt have to go thru that process now (2nd time modem restart).

 

[s18000rpm]

-------------------edit 2-------------
time-10.28am

now, this problem doesnt occur on laptop

i tried to open rapidshare (rs) page simultaneously (laptop & desktop) & its now confirmed that something's wrong in Desktop & not in router config., as the rs page opened on laptop, while on desktop it did after that procedure.

There would be some problem with the DHCP. Enable it on the router page. Then in the Broadband properties from N&S Center go to Networking Tab and select IPv4. Click properties and then under the general tab, select 'Obtain an IP address automatically'. You can also select 'Obtain a DNS server address automatically'.

Restart the connection and check if the problem resolves.

this is the diagnostics result (Intel Pro advanced tools)


i left the N&S settings to default, i.e 'Obtain an IP address automatically' is selected.
to me, the router config seems ok, as i'm not facing any prblm thru laptop.

DHCP Server is enabled.

Enable DHCP Server
Start IP Address: 192.168.1.2
End IP Address: 192.168.1.254
Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.0

Go to Broadband > Properties > Networking > IPv4 Properties > Advanced > WINS
Check if the WINS panel has any address in it. Also check and select NetBIOS over TCP/IP as disabled in the WINS option.

Install the newest available driver from the vendor's site and reconnect to see what happens.
