Network Ordering Problem

I have a PC on my network that will only recognise any deviced that are present when it boots. If I turn on the pc and then turn, for example, my adsl router or another PC, the PC won't find it.
If I turn on the router before the PC it works fine. Selecting 'repair' on the connection fixes the problem every time, but the problem still occurs next time it boots.
Has anybody got any ideas?

Leave the modem and router on 24/7. They were built for this usage.
 
That's not the point, if I turn on another PC (PC-2) after the PC with the problem (PC-1), then PC-2 can see PC-1 but PC-1 cannot see PC-2 until I repair the connection on PC-1.
