wireless dropouts

recently moved to a wireless router - netgear ragemax wpn824 with a netgear rangemax usb connector (on vista). for about a week everything went smoothly, but yesterday my connection started to drop out. i would receive no signal at all. turning the computer off and reconnecting the usb seems to fix it. a laptop connected through ethernet cable to the router works fine, plus my girlfriends laptop which has a built in wireless card also picks up the network fine, so i'm thinking its the usb on my end?

Re: wireless dropouts

I detest USB for networking, so that would be my top suspect.
