hi mate, welcome to daniweb! have you tried installing it all without the disk, as often these cause a conflict between different brands, you can usually set-up a router via its ip address, found out by, opening up the command prompt, then typing in `ipconfig` the address next to default gateway is the address of your router, when you say it loses it after 30 seconds, do you mean the connection to the internet or the wireless network? as this could help determine where the fault lies.
