Every time I visit a website with A LOT of images, My MacBook Pro disconnects from the internet. It acts as though it's loading for a while and then I will get a message that I am disconnected from the internet. It will also disconnect all the other computers connected to the internet (through my wireless netgear router). The other computers are PC laptops and everything is connected wirelessly. Do I need a new router or is there another quick fix? Thanks!

What happens when you only have one machine connected to the internet at a time and you access a site with many images? (Turn off all the PCs and only keep your MBP on.)
