Why does our Internet connection keep randomly stopping?

[RevoltTheHedgehog]

Our router is connected to the computer, so when we turn on the computer, the router activates too.

Thing is, what's been happening a lot recently is when I turn on the computer to get Internet access for my iPad, the router is on but the wireless connection isn't working at all. So I have to reboot the computer, and once I do that, it starts working again.

It's really annoying. Is there a particular reason this is happening, and how can we stop it?
