Ok ive tried everything to try and sort this problem out, ive looked in my events logger and there are no errors anymore with my DHCP, ive tried a different sockets round the house and that ended up in the same result. On my laptop i have 2 network adapters and was just wondering if they could be cancelling each other out or something.

Atheros AR5007UG Wireless Network Adapter
Realtek RTL8101E Family PCI-E Fast Ethernet NIC (NDIS 6.0) - both up to date.

If this doesn't solve my problem then i deffinatley know its my router because it randomly drops the signal on my mums laptop as well, she uses xp and i use vista.

EDIT

Should i deselect this box:

It sounds like to me that you may have some interference with your wireless network. Do you have any cordless phones in your house? Do you know if they are 2.4Ghz?
