My PC is networked via ethernet cable to a router shared with my wife's PC, which is the primary, and the router is connected to a DSL modem. OS is XP/Pro/32 and at least once a day I draw a blank with my internet connection, have to enter "netsh winsock reset" and restart my PC. This always works so it isn't the end of the world but I was wondering if there's a more permanent fix for this?

I don't have time right now to give you full directions on how to do it, but have you tried setting the router up for assigning static IP addresses to your computers? Might help.

What kind of router is it?

Specs: Asus Crosshair nForce 590 SLI,
AMD Athlon X2 6400+ w/ZeroTherm BTF90,
4GB G.Skill PI Series DDR2-800,
Sapphire HD4870 512MB,
PC P&C 750 Quad, in a CoolerMaster HAF932

It's a D-Link DI604. Will investigate 'static IP addresses'.
