Huh? *ALL* are hooked up wired execept for the laptop. Yet, you say
that the "other three", which are the *WIRED* computers, are losing
connectivity? Meanwhile the wireless laptop continues to work? Is
this really what you're saying?
The only thing that will cause a *WIRED* computer to lose connectivity
is rotten wiring or connectors. It can also be your ISP, although
that would cause all computers to simulaneously lose connectivity.
It's possible that the WGR614v7 has a problem. Have up checked for
the latest firmware updates?

If it's the wireless that has problems, possible sources of
interference (from the FAQ):
<http://wireless.wikia.com/wiki/Wi-Fi#Interference>
With interference, a stronger signel might help somewhat, but is not a
guaranteed fix. Usually, putting the radios (WGR614v7 or the Xbox360)
in a window, where they can pickup all kinds of interference from the
neighborhood, is a bad idea. Keep the radios away from the windows.
