Hello every time my internet drops I receive this message from the network diagnostic "There may be a problem with your dns configuation, windows failed to find the well known host @ www.microsoft.com".

I have changed the Wireless Channel
I have released/renewed the ip

Wireless router
Net gear 54g
Windows VISTA-64bit
Dell W-LAN minicard
