I have a Toshiba Satellite laptop that is connected to my wireless
network.  I have three desktop computers connected to that same
wireless network using Windows XP connection bridging and a linksys
network switch.  This way, all four computers can use the wireless card
in the laptop.
All of this works fine until it has been connected for a few hours.
All of a sudden, the laptop stops being able to get on the internet.
It can still ping the router and all three other computers.  It can
stil share files and printers with all three other computers.  The
other three computers are still able to get on the internet.  What is
the problem?
