Bump

I'm not sure if people can help me out or not, but I thought I'd give it a shot. So I have my home network set up, and here's how it's set up:

In my master bedroom: Shaw Modem -> Router -> wall line leading to my furnace room

In my furnace room: (From master bedroom line) ->Switch -> The rest of the lines in my house

So I go to plug in my Xbox in the family room to stream media from my computer in the master bedroom to my TV in the family room. When I'm streaming stuff, it works for the first 5 minutes or so, and then the network cuts out. I restart my Xbox and the network comes back on, but again 5 minutes into the streamed video, it cuts out again.

I don't understand why the network would work and then cut out and work again when I restart the Xbox. Is there some kind of conflict between the router and the switch that I'm not aware of? I currently have the D-Link DIR-655 router and a D-Link Switch (the 10/100 mbit one)

Anyways, if anyone could shed some light into this, it would be greatly appreciated :-)
