Did you try setting your DNS servers to static? There was a problem
with some Netgear routers and Win7 64 bit where they would drop if you
had your system automatically detect the DNS servers.

I have a Windows 7 Home Premium 64 machine. It gets an IP address via

173.194.38.191 works, but www.google.ca).
I've tried the following:
netsh winsock reset
netsh int ip reset winsockreset.log
netsh winhttp reset proxy
No change. I've uninstalled the anti-virus, with no change.
Has anyone seen this before or have a suggestion?
