Strange Xp wireless trouble.

Ok, so I installed Xp with Boot Camp on my MBP. Most things are working fine and any issues I've had I've been able to resolve with driver updates, etc.

The one remaining problem and probably the biggest is:

I'm connected to a Netopia modem/router. My ISP is Eircom.

My wireless works fine, without any trouble in OS X, however, when I boot up to Xp, first off all the internet works fine and all of a sudden I get dropped to usually zero, sometimes limited connectivity. I'm 100% connected to the network but I can't seem to get online. The only way I'm able to fix this is by restarting the router.

Please help.

By the way, would using a proxy service like OpenDNS change much?
