I need router advise

I have a notepad running Win xP home edition fully upgraded.

The wireless network card connects to, and reads the DI-514 router,
but there is no wireless router connection to the inrernet.

Configuration is: DSL modem into a linksys 4-port hardwire router
(this feeds 3 hardwired computers on my home network which all run and
connect perfectly.
The 4th hardwire connects to my DI-514 wireless for the notepad.

If the DI-514 is connected directly into the DSL modem there is a
good wireless internet connection.

The reason I stopped wireless routing the other 3 computers through
the DI-514 is that it drops my connection too often, doing it this way
if it drops - it only affects my notepad.

What am I missing here?

If its working fine then dropping the connection every so often its probibly
because of your wireless router. Next time it drops restart the wireless
router and if the internet comes back right after the restart then its a
problem with the router.

Some wireless routers can be temperamental with dropping the connection. I
heard some DLink routers are not so good. I would spend the extra cash and
get a netgear, also have never had any problems with linksys.
