Sounds like a DHCP issue..

Set your pc ips for static, also add the gateway to default gateways.

for static ips, how do you pull that off? Do you need to talk to the isp or what?

Right click on your network, then properties. Right click your connection and then go to properties. The next box that opens, scroll down if you need to and find TCP/IP. Highlight it and then click the properties button. It will say obtain an IP automatically, or use the following. Auto = dynamic and Manual = static.

You might want to go into your drivers and make sure that the duplex is set correctly. I helped someone the other day that had 2 NICs. One was set to full and the other was set to auto. I changed the auto to full and all was better.
