Hi guys.Two computers networked together (wireless).Both computers are on Windows xp home edition.
They share internet and files fine, but the Internet connection keeps dissapearing on both of them every few minutes.
All the lights on the cable modem are "on" which means there is connection but on the mashines it is "on" and "off"

Olena
