The first thing that I notice is that the RAM in your machine is way too low for Windows 7. It wants to be at least 1GB preferably 2GB as a minimumum. Your computer is just going to run a bit and then hang then run all the time whilst it swap files info between the RAM and virtual hard drive it has to use because there isn't enough RAM.

As a speculation, your connection might be timing out because your computer keeps hanging from the VERY low RAM.

Press ctrl-alt-del and check out in Task Manager how much memory is consumed during playing video..

 

On WinXP after booting system and opening Firefox and starting browsing net (3 tabs) memory usage is already 987 MB = ~1 GB almost.

That's a good idea RAM is really really cheap. You can have a maximum of 3.5GB on windows 7

It may also be an IP address issue. Your system look like being configured with a continuously changing IP address. Look in the instruction manual of your modem.
