I am currently at a freinds house using wirless internet. I get a very
good singal and a correct IP address.

The internet can work fine for about 15 mins then no webpages will
load, MSN will stop and so will email.

No one else on the network are having any probmes. I have not yet
tested the laptop on any other network or wired network

Any ideas

Do you have zonealarm installed? if so then possibly you need to add the
ISP's IP to the trusted zone, as normally refreshes DHCP and if not in the
trusted zone you pc is blocked from the internet, therefore no refresh of
the DHCP.
open ZA's console go to firewall, Zones then click once on your IP address
and then right click and select trusted zones
 
I do not have zone alarm installed on the laptop

The Internet use to work fine of freinds network
 
Wireless 11b or 11g is "supposed" to be interrupted by cordless telephones or
microwaves. Where do you set up to use the network and what might have
change???

Also, you should check for all/any updated drivers for your system, especially
the wireless adapter and motherboard chipset.

But only if the cordless phones use a certain frequency, according to my
manual........
