1. Latest Firmware for the linksys?
2. Latest Nic drivers?
3. Any third party firewall software running?
Now when you say loses internet connection ... does its DHCP lease die (NACK) and you either get all zeros, or a 169 address. Or does it appear that the actual physical connection dies, possibly indicating a bad port or a bad patch cable.
