Intel 3945ABG crashing network

Ever since I got my Inspiron E1705 with the Intel 3945ABG wireless card, my laptop crashes my entire network.  It seems to happen most with websites that have alot of content.  It ends up resetting my router and all computers on the network need to be rebooted.  I've browsed hundreds of forums, downloaded and updated drivers...I can't fix the problem.  It seems to be getting worse.  I've narrowed it down to my wireless card cuz I don't have the problem when I wire the laptop to the network, nor do I have the problem with any other computer, wireless and wired, on the network.  My router is a Linksys WCG200 v.2.  Please help before I throw all my computers and adapters out the window!!!  :smileymad:

Go to the Intel web site and download the latest drivers for the network adapter.  Then, boot into Safe Mode, go into Device Manager and uninstall the wireless network adapter.  Reboot to Normal mode, cancel the New Hardware wizard, if it starts, then run the driver installation file you downloaded to reinstall the network adapter.
