Recently my computer a Toshiba Satellite laptop running Windows XP SP3 no longer works with my wireless internet connection. It works for exactly ten minutes as timed by my Wireless Network Connection Status and then stops. It says it is still connected but pages just time out. No matter what Browser I use or if I reset or turn the connection off and back on it still will not work until I reset my computer then I have ten more minutes. My time is counting down right now.

I appreciate any help. Thank you in advance.

I have restored my computer to an earlier point, I have run Ad-Aware, Spybot S&D, and my antivirus Avast in depth scan each multiple times and come up with nothing. I have updated Windows as much as I can and I have tried repairing the connection and other internet related fixes to no avail.
