Loosing Wireless Signal

I have a LAN with 3 wired (Cat 5 to NIC) PCs and one wireless PC, all
feeding into the same router. The router is a D-Link DI-714P+, which is
connected to a cable modem.

Yesterday I was on the internet with the wireless PC, when suddenly I lost
the signal. Of course this happens, but usually I'll get the signal back
soon unless the modem is just simply not getting a signal (because of some
problem with the ISP or whatever). In this case, however, my wired PCs could
still access the internet. I waited about an hour, and still could not get
online with my wireless PC. Then this morning I tried to access the internet
again with the wireless PC , but still no signal. The wired PCs were
accessing the internet just fine.

So I powered down the cable modem and the router for a couple of minutes,
powered them back up, and then the wireless PC was able to get back online
again.

Anybody have any ideas about what was going on? Thanks.
