Got a problem that is really bugging me. I have a couple of laptops that use the Netgear WG511 cards connected to an old SMC 7004vwbr router, along with 4 hardwired computers. My hardwired computers never loose internet connectivity but my laptops constantly loose the internet connection. NOTE they do not loose a network connection. Each is assigned an address, and I've tried every setting i can find and still cannot resolve the problem.

Is it an issue with the cards or the router?

Yeah, I was sort of thinking the router might be the problem. I'll have to start looking for a good deal on a router, this one is a bit long in the tooth.
