Internet Connection Dropout

I am having problems with my network stopping receiving packets.

I have a ComTrend ADSL2+ CT-5621T Modem and a Linksys WRT300N Wireless-N Router.

It doesn't happen on a schedule, it happens often though. I know it is not on the computer as a problem, as my XBOX 360 Live connection drops too.

When this happens, the ADSL light flickers for about 30 seconds on the modem. It stop receiving packets, and on Google Chrome when I am navigating while it is dropping, it says Operation Timed Out.

The router log shows this:

Code:
Sat, 26 Feb 2011 16:06:11 received DISCOVER from 00:22:48:64:B4:75
Sat, 26 Feb 2011 16:06:12 sending OFFER to 255.255.255.255 with 192.168.1.102
Sat, 26 Feb 2011 16:06:12 received REQUEST from 00:22:48:64:B4:75
Sat, 26 Feb 2011 16:06:12 sending ACK to 255.255.255.255

Please help! Please do not tell me to contact ISP too.

Very appreciated if you can help me! :thumbsup: 😀
 
I don't know very much about routers. However I had trouble with my internet connection timing out before. Here's what I did:

-Disconnected router from modem and removed the AC adapter to the router, powering it off. Waited 30 seconds
-Plugged in the AC adapter again, waited for the router to fully power up and turn on (~ 30 seconds)
-Plugged the cable from the modem to the router
 
Thanks, but I have tried that very many times. It seems to prolong the amount of time I get before it drops again. But it doesn't fix it.
