One Computer won't stay connected to network.

Hi, I have an odd problem.

I am running two desktops and a lappy within a wireless network. All is well most of the time but the older of the desktops keeps dropping off the MSHome network after maybe 30 mins and will not see the other two computers and they can't transfer anything up to it. It is however remaining on the wireless connection as connecting to the internet is not a problem.

I constantly have to restart the offending desk top to get it to see the other two, once that is done it seems fine. However, next time around it will have dropped the network again after a 30 mins or so. Running the network set up wizard makes no difference. Anyone got any idea's?

All are running XP, the two desktops are XP home and the lappy is XP Professional. It's a Linksys router.

Thanks in anticipation.
