I would definetly recommand you to take diamond skin and frost nova, especially if you use critical mass. Your problem is that you got no defensive skills and most act2 mobs will be able to get to you. About your gear, if you want to improve your survival without spending too much, i would suggest you look for a better shield (with crit since you have few crit chance and you want more than that with critical mass) since they usually sell for cheap. You might even want to reconsider using critical mass for now since you have low crit chance.
Instead of critical mass what would you suggest? I was using it to get my cool down on my archon down. At lower levels I went intelligence all over with gems. Once I got to inferno I realized I couldn't do that and had to look at what I was doing wrong. I decided I needed more health. As far as defensive skills go I haven't used any at all. My thoughts are to kill before they get too close and if they do get close then archon and melt everyone away. I try to use blizzard as a method to slow attackers down so I can move and re-position myself so that I can attack again.
+ crit chance and a ton of life regen got me over that same hump. life regen is a lifesaver for us squishy ranged folk, although prob. more helpful for my WD w/ the pet benefit.
How much life regen would you suggest? I was for a while using a sword with damage converted to life, but now it does about 3k less damage than my current weapon.
I play on the US server. My username is Wetzeb#1968. Play as a wizard and that is my only character at the moment. I have to play at a lan center so I don't get much play time in throughout the week. On average about 5 hours whenever I do play a day. But I play maybe 1-3 times a week.
I can farm and solo act 1 easily. Even going back to Hell I can pretty much walk through most areas no probably. But I have issues with Act 2. I've always hated act 2 even back in D2. Just hate it all together. So I need help. I don't know what I need to change or if I need to change anything.

Well, apparently I can't make a post to my profile. My user name is Wetzeb#1968 though.
I'm open to any suggestions as far as builds go also. I feel that I do good with my current build.

Completely understand, just caught me off guard. Almost to 10 posts but it's all good.

Thank you for that. First time I have joined a forum with that rule. Kinda shocked me.
