My internet keeps crashing? I have to reset my router/network adapter to fix, but I want it to stop crashing?
I have Windows Vista and here is a picture of what I'm seeing:
http://zhost.tk/u/al/bad_internet.jpg
I just got my modem and router replaced, so that isn't the problem (I think). My internet will be doing fine and then I will try to open up a gaming program or a web page, and it just loads forever, eventually telling me that it couldn't connect to the DNS server. I am able to fix this by resetting my modem and router, but I want to be able to surf the web without having to do this multiple times a day! I am using Google Public DNS.
Help?

Go to "Start > Run" and type "cmd" (no quotes), then select "OK"
Type "ipconfig /release" (no quotes) and press "Enter"
Once the prompt returns, type "ipconfig /renew" (no quotes), then hit "Enter,"
Finally, type "exit" (without quotes) then press "Enter" to close the window
Also, make sure under the properties box of you wifi connection, both connect automatically and connect even if this network is not broadcasting it's name (SSDI) is checked.
You can also try not using google DNS

Putting a ferrite suppressor on the power lead cured this problem for me. See link for example.
