I have a Linksys BEFSX41 router plugged into my cable modem. I have 5 computers hooked into the router. Running WinXP Pro and one Win 98 2nd edition with IE 6 and IE 7. I cannot go further then 2 or 3 pages into Newegg without getting a "Cannot find server" page. This happens only when I am hooked into the the router. If I hook directly into the cable modem I can spend eternity and tons of cash on Newegg. It also happens on Restuarant.com, I can only go a few pages and run into trouble.

It does not happen all the time, as last week I spent hours at Newegg looking at pricing and parts for a new pc I built. Then I went back and bought some digital picture frames. All the while hooked into the router. Now I am trying to go to Newegg and I cannot go more then 2 or 3 pages.

Like I said it does not happen all the time but happens quite alot. What in the router would cause this?

See if it does the same with Firefox? Other things you can try is to update the firmware or switch to a Netgear router.
