Unhappy Lost connection

Here's the deal, I'm currently using Limewire 4.8, but every now and then (at apparently random moments), I lose my internet connection completely to the extent that I have to unplug my broadband modem from the mains for a minute before powering it back, at which point Limewire continues working along with my other internet apps.

This wasn't a problem from the offset (I've used earlier versions of Limewire trouble free at first).

The problem occured on my old PC, it's now happening on my new PC, yet it DOESN'T appear to happen on my laptop.. spooky.

Any suggestions?

1. OS version? XP Pro - no service packs
2. What firewalls you have? - Norton Int. Sec 2005
3. RAM? 512Mb
4. Hard Disk space available? 100Gb+
5. Connection type? 1Mb broadband
6. Modem & router brand name & model numbers? Modem - Scientific Atlanta DPX110, Router - D-Link DI-514 Wireless router
7. Connecting from home
8. Limewire ver. 4.80 Pro / Java 1.5.0_01
9. ISP - Bluyonder (Telewest)
