Vista loose internet but continue to share it

S

Sweden

I have no idéa what I should call this problem, cos it is strange.

I run Vista Ultimate x86 on my desktop since the summe -07. The problem is
that a couple of times a day Vista drops parts of the internet connection and
the only solution is an annoying reboot. Strange is that viewing web pages
never work, but sometimes i can continue to use MSN and Webradio, and
uTorrent run, tho at lower speeds.
BUT i can always use internet at my laptop which get's internet from an
"ad-hoc WLAN" connection through the desktop.

The desktop has a direct connection (1 wire, no routers) to 100/10 fibre.
I've checked with the ISP, it's not their problem. I've disabled NOD32 and
windows firewall.
I tried the Network & Sharing "repair" thingy. Get new IP (not working),
restart adapter (not working).
I also tried to restart the Base Filtering Engine service with no luck,
since i read that it could couse problems.
If i check "ipconfig /all" there seems to be a little change between
normal and when internet is gone. I still have 4 DNS Servers on the Adapter
but I think the DNS are gone at some of the "tunnel" adapters, if I remember
right.
I tried /flushDNS but it didn't help.

Any comments or solutions will be appreciated.

Check if there is a new firmware for the router. Or this link may help.

Since you don't have a router, you may try to remove the IPv6 completely
(instead of disable it).
