Belkin Pre-N Wireless Router Problem

My wireless router keeps on going out every hour or so. If I plug my
laptop into my cable modem, it will work. If the cable modem plugs
into the router, the wireless internet will disconnect within an hour.
I know the problem is not the cable modem. The Belkin support lady
said that it is probably a "network bridge problem" I dont know what
she's talking about, and Microsoft support doesn't either. Someone may
have changed the network settings on the laptop, because it is shared
with a large group of people in my house, but it's not likely. Any
possible solutions? What could be making my internet go out every hour
or so? This has been happening for a week. The internet only goes back
on if I restart the cable modem and router. Any ideas? Thanks a lot.

By the way, my router is a Belkin Pre-N and my modem is a Motorola
Surfboard. Thanks a lot.
