Atheros AR9285 wifi adapter

i have an HP G61 notebook and recentley when i get on the internet i get messages like yahoo.com cannot be found. when i exit out of internet explorer and try again its fine but when i load another page like facebook.com for instance i get the message facebook.com cannot be found so i exit out of internet explorer once again go back in and its fine again. this is really starting to annoy me esspecially since i bought the notebook and a week later i had to have HP send me a new recovery disc as my notebook would not boot up propely. i need help resolving this issue before i sell my 3 week old HP notebook and get a dell.
