This is by far the oddest problem I have ever had. I recently Flashed my linksys e4200 with build 17201 as I felt it had reached a level of stability that would allow home usage.

However, now my laptop with an intel n-6300(windows 7 x64) randomly loses internet. When I say loses internet I mean I stay connected to the access point, can ping and navigate to the routers web gui, can access all computers on the network, however everything past the routers ( modem and internet) is disconnected from me.

The oddest part of this is that the other laptops and tablets on my network suffer no problems, and my laptop with the n-6300 in linux suffers no problems. I find it odd that it only loses connection past the router. At first I thought it to be a driver problem but the error only occurred in dd-wrt and only in windows. Also, a workaround is when this happens to disable and then reenable the wireless card.

It sounds like you might be experiencing the Intel driver bug described in this thread.

Turn off power saving for the laptops wifi adapter.
I've seen the same symptoms on a few wifi cards from different mfgrs when they wake up after power saving.
