It could be dead.

Are you thinking about router MTU settings

640862 2008-02-17 05:35:00 I'm asking about what the router is so we can go in and change a setting - this may fix it since it drops every 5 minutes. BUT with the knowledge of what make/model of router it can be advised as to the location of this setting.


Routers have an default timeout of 5 minutes, after which the connection is renegotiated. There may be a delay, or the connection may drop if there is a problem with the Internet service. The value can be set higher, or to 0, meaning the router never logs out. Consult your manuals for instructions.

640863 2008-02-17 09:48:00 I used ipconfig

there are 3 DNs items


the network bridge with ipaddress ending .2.5

the belkin ethernet ending .2.6


and the wireless ending .2.2

the subnet and default gateways are all the same

i run a belkin with the cable plugged in

the other laptops in the house run on the wireless only and do not drop the connection
