Home Networking issue

Belkin Wireless N Router
Belkin Wireless N USB dongle
Windows 7 Professional
Strong Wireless signal

Network is open - no security. (I know, I know... however, I live in the middle of nowhere and there's no one around to steal my signal).

Occasionally I will lose internet access via wireless. I'm still connected to the router but I can't access it via a IP address. Normally I'd say that the solution would be to reboot the router etc... to fix the problem. One small issue - every other machine in my house stays connected to the internet when my signal drops. My iPhone, laptop, and my Girlfriend's laptop are all fine.


I've tried all of the usual stuff (ipconfig, restarting the DHCP service. etc...)

Anyone know what could be causing my issues? How can I fix it?

PS - This NEVER happens to any other device in my house. Just my Windows 7 machine.
