Always have to powercycle DSL modem and wireless router

[alone2gether]

In our office we have DSL. The Actiontec modem is connected to my computer via ethernet cable, and then the rest of our computers all connect wireless via our Linksys wireless router. Every couple of days or so, in the middle of working (all of our programs for work are web-based), everything internet-related stops responding. If I unplug both the modem and router for a few seconds and plug them back in, everything works again just fine. Any idea why this is happening and what can be done to prevent it from happening again?
