Netgear WGR614 Wireless Router PROBLEMS!!

Just when I thought my setup was fine, and everything was working...

I have a Cable Modem -> Netgear WGR614 Wireless 802.11g Router ->
Linksys HPRO200 (Phone-Line Network Router) -> Phone Jack

I have 3 computers connected to the network via PNA (Phone line
network) from the HPRO200. I have one laptop wirelessly connected via
the WGR614.

All was working fine, until yesterday, when I cam home and for some
reason no one was able to get online (wired and wireless). I
unplugged cable, wireless, and PNA, and put them back on, in that
order. Then everything was fine again.

Then, this morning, no one was able to get online again. Once, maybe
was a fluke, but twice seems to indicate there's some kind of problem.

All the lights on the cable modem are on and flashing where they
should be, same goes for both routers. When I unplug the power to the
wireless router, and re-plug in the power, then everything works
again.

Even when no one can get online, the lights on all the routers look
the same as they do when everything is working...

Why do I keep losing connection after a couple of hours, and what can
I do to fix this?

Thanks!

Ok, I think I got it working, and I have no idea which thing I did was
the reason it works, but here's all I did:
- Netgear WGR614v2 firmware updated to newest version (Version 2.05 -
Oct 9 2003)
- WEP-128 (WPA off)
- WinXP Wireless Rollup Package Installed
- Wireless Zero Configuration set to Automatic (on)
- Uninstalled ALL drivers and utilities for my TrueMobile 1300,
restarted, let windows recognize it, and install drivers from the CD
it came with. (But did NOT install the Dell utility.)

Something, or a combination of all of these, fixed my problem. Thanks
for all your help!
