No internet after several hours - Help needed

Hello all,

I've had this problem for about a week (!) now and have tried many "fixes" but still have it.

I just don't get it. Everything worked fine with my previous PC, Windows XP.

I got a new desktop system running Windows 7 and this happens. <shaking head>

Basically what happens is after several hours I am unable to load web pages using IE or Firefox, or use Yahoo messenger.

Strangely AOL, my torrent program, and frostwire still work.

What I really don't get is that the XP laptop I have wirelessly connected works fine and doesn't have the issue, yes this PC which is connected with a wire to the router does. ?????????

If I reboot the system doing nothing else the issue is fixed until next time.

I have a WRT54g router.

I have tried removing Bonjour, and I have also tried all of the other obvious fixes.

Below is my ipconfig and a route trace taken by Windows 7 at the time the issue was actually present.

I'm hoping SOMEONE can tell me what to try and do to fix this as this is driving me crazy.

Thanks all. I am kind of new at networking itself, and plus I am still learning how to get around Windows 7 after using XP for years so if you require any other info to try and help me please let me know and I'll do my best.

Frank

I believe you need to go to Start <> Run and type cmd, Now type ipconfig /flushdns

Should I wait until the problem surfaces again to do this or do it now?

What does this actually do?

Thanks for your suggestion.

Code:

C:\>ipconfig /flushdns

[/QUOTE]

Nope, ipconfig is in the system32 directory

C:\ is not in the environmental variables,. unless you changed yours

I did this and I got rid of Bonjour.

I am STILL having a problem.

The latest thing I tried is upon this last reboot I uninstalled my network card driver and upon the reboot the driver was reinstalled.

Now I am waiting to see if the problem comes back.

This is drving me bonkers!

Do it now and test ...

rsvr85,.

Yes,. I realize that,. but it wa snever stated to go to the command prompt, unless I mussed something.

What is Bonjour?

Just do a search on here. There are several posts about it causing problems
with Windows 7. I was *hoping* it was the source of my problem but it's not.

Yes,. I realize that,. but it wa snever stated to go to the command prompt, unless I mussed something.
