Title says it all. This happens with both CS:S and Team Fortress 2. I don't have access to another non-Steam online game right now with which that I can test.
I'm on a wireless connection, the same one we've had at home for ~3 years now. Same 802.11g PCI adapter (Motorola WPCI810G), never had any serious problems with it. Temperatures system-wide are very good, 8800GT never gets above 55C, CPU never above 50C. The ONLY computer affected by this problem is my main gaming rig, all others on the network work fine when this one crashes.
The problem started when I wiped my C drive and started over with a new XP installation.
Things I've tried to help fix the problem:
Also, the connection restores itself after approximately one minute of inactivity.
Input, suggestions are appreciated. Thanks in advance!

Things I've tried to help fix the problem:
- Uninstalled ESET SmartSecurity. Didn't make a difference.
- Enabled/disabled Windows Firewall, no change.
- Tried repositioning the PCI adapter's antenna. No change.
Also, the connection restores itself after approximately one minute of inactivity.
