Open the box and look at the electrolytic capacitors surrounding the
AMD CPU. Are they bulging, leaking out the bottom, or about to
simulate a volcano? A common symptom is erratic hangs. You can also
have the problem with the electrolytics in the power supply. Judging
by the vintage of your motherboard, this problem is likely.

Please note that your question has nothing to do with either wireless
or internet.
