Randomly lose DSL connection with Linksys "wired" router

Hey folks... anyone having this issue?
 
Recently bought an Linksys wired router (RT41-BU) about a week ago.  Setup went real smooth- everything worked right from start.  Since then, I'll randomly lose my DSL connection (5-6 times already this week).  ISP says I'm connected, but my computer seems to think not.  The Speedstream 4100 appears to be working correctly- all the lights are on.  I contacted Linksys and ran through the cmd procedures in DOS- seemed like everything was OK with the Router, so why am I losing the DSL connection?  Could it be a firewall issue?  Is something timing out? 
 
The only fix right now is really troublesome- disconnecting router and reaquiring DSL connection directly via DSL modem.  Once the DSL is reaquired, then I go ahead and hook the router back up and things work fine until the next random event hits.
 
Thanks!
