iAtkos v7 Intermittent Internet:: PLEASE HELP!

[ihack321]

Hello,

 

I am new to OSX x86. I just installed iAtkos v7 (10.5.7) on my AMD PC. Everthing went as anticpated, except I am now having troubles with my internet connection. It worked perfectly at first, but a day later, it is having real problems. It progressively slows down, and eventually stops working all together (the computer says it is not connected to the internet). If I restart the computer the internet works again, but very slowly. It's bizarre!

 

To put into perspective, I have 25mb download speeds, but Google takes at least 5 seconds to load.

 

I ran a diagnostic test from within system preferences (when the internet does slowly work) and network setttings, ISP, internet, and server are all green, but Ethernet is not (failed). I don't know what to make of that considering web pages DO load.

 

Is this a faulty driver or something?

 

ANY HELP WOULD BE GREATLY APPRECIATED!!!

 

My specs:

AMD Athlon x2 4400+

8600gt 256mb

installed on 80gb IDE hd

4gb ddr2 667 ram

BIOSTAR TF520-A2 mobo (Nvidia nforce 520)

Realtek ALC888 audio

Realtek RTL8110SC - 10/100/1000 Controller -----this is probably important
