Internet connection problem

Hello,

I have a strange problem with my Mac. I can access the internet on every network except the one in my house. At home, the internet will work for anywhere from one minute to one hour before it stops loading, even though it's still showing a full-strength signal. If I turn the AirPort off and then on again, it will work for a few minutes before stopping. If I do Network Diagnostics and go through the "Assist Me" process, it will tell me that everything is fine, and it will work again for another few minutes before stopping again.

I live with three people and none of them have any problems with their internet, which makes me think that it is my computer.

Has anyone heard of this before? Does this sound like a problem with my Internet service or with the Mac?

Thanks!
 
OK. Please tell us the wireless router, wireless frequency (a, b, g, n) and what kind of security you are using at home. Also are any other devices have wireless problems at home?

I as because there is a certain wireless router maker that is known to brake after just a couple of years. Plus the clue you gave is the wireless in your Mac works other place, just not at your house. So this points to something at your house.
 
Hello again,

Here is the information you asked for:
Security is WPA
Wireless frequency is 802.11g
Router is Linksys, model number is WRT150n.

Thanks for any advice,

Alaina
