I am providing you a solution which solved the problem using vista ,win7, and winxp in a network.Make a crossover LAN cable connection from the modem to router thus eliminating internet disconnection.I tested this on the three routers using the same method.It is working fine .Hope it also work for you when you try this out.

According to me it may be having problem with the router setting.If the router setting for the one computer is set to static and other one is not having the static one, then any one could be automatically removed out.You need to check whether you are having the static IP .If yes the n try to disable the setting.Your problem will be automatically solved and there will be no more problem of connection with the router.

This problem was faced by me for a long period ,then i founded the proper solution .I am providing you the solution which had worked for me.You need to install a switcher in between your router and your modem . Adding the switcher to the modem causes the modem to see the wireless router as another computer.It sounds different but it works.The switchers cost around Rs 800-1200 .I is a good one ,just try it out.
