Default Router Help!

I have a D-Link DI-524 Wireless/Wired Router and I have some problems with it. This router worked for a few months, but then it started losing the connection.

This is what happened: I'm on my brother's computer to print something, his computer is the main one that has access to the router's IP. So anyway, everything is working great and then I had to restart the computer. Once back in windows, the **** connections keeps going out. It'll be on for like 1-2 minutes tops, and then it says, "A Network Cable is Unplugged". It stays off for a few seconds and then the connection is back. So my connection keeps going on and off. What can I do? I tried re-configuring the router by going into its IP address, but it does the same thing. I re-configured it a few months back with the same problem, and the router started working again, but now even with the re-coniguration, it still keeps losing the connection.

Any ideas? Any help appreciated.

All the PC's work, it's not the PC's, it's the router, when PC1 is connected straight from modem, it works without any flaws, when it's throught the router, it keeps losing the connection. I'm using PC2 right now, I can get a few seconds to post.

Nope. It worked fine for quite a while, like 6 months. I mean, it had these problems before, but I've been able to fix them by resetting and re-configuring, but now the connections keeps disappearing even after I reset and re-configure.
