Default Internet Connection going down..because of lag?!?

I've been having this problem since guild wars started lagging really really bad. I recently got a new computer abourt a month ago, along with a new router, which is wireless. About 2 weeks ago, my internet started going down once in awhile, and it always happens when i'm on guild wars. I picked up a new modem today, and reconfigered my router, everything was working fine, until I lagged in guild wars again, i then got an error 7, and my internet went out. I checked the other wired desktop, and the wireless laptop while my internet was down on my computer.. and both of those computers could still go on the internet but mine.........I don't get it.... it can't be my router, or my modem because 2 other computers in the house are on the internet when my internet goes down...Could this really be linked to guild wars?? My internet is totally fine until i start lagging in guild wars. I was on the phone with the router company for 2 hours today... anyone help??

Edit: I forgot to say, after i lose connection on guild wars, and it throws me completely off the internet on this computer, it tells me theres a problem with the primary DNS..??

With configuring your router do you mean Port Forwarding or simply installing it?

Your windows might lose it's DNS settings, thats what makes you lose all internet connection.
You're still connected to your router right?

Go to the properties of your network connection and then to the properties of 'Internet Protocol (TCP/IP)'. There you can set up the DNS of your router (should be noted somewhere, otherwise it's the adress you have to type to get into your router's configuration menu). If that won't work, you can skip the router by directly letting it connect to your internet service provider's DNS (google it), bypassing your router.
If that doesn't work, you could use an alternate DNS server like OpenDNS.

This happened to me also, I've had wireless for 3 years, and it's going to be the death of me I swear. My solution was, Uninstalling the adapter, plugging it in, and letting windows install it for me. I also need to go into my routers settings and allow port 6112.
