Traffic Priority
 

got the missus a laptop a while ago as i was gettin a bit piffed that i couldn't get on my pc. she never used it that much until i put my foot down a bit :D.

now when we're both online browsing or she's on msn and i'm doing some work it's not a problem, but if she's browsing or msn'ing/facebooking etc and i'm trying to play cod4 it plays havoc with my pings/packet loss sometimes.

is there a way i can prioritize my gaming traffic on my router? the router in question is a belkin F5D7230uk4 wireless g. the destructions are a bit vauge. i'm not sure if it can be done, but if anybody knows any different i'd love to know how.

Look for QoS in the router console. If its not there try an upgrade if there is one.

The Linksys WRT54G and the DD-WRT firmware definately has QoS as I use it myself. They cost around £40 and the firmware is a free download.
