dlink dir-301 issues
 
Ok, everything here computerwise is FINE. Except that is, for the router.

Laptop on wireless, PC on dongle, macbook is wired....

Here's a summary of the issue....

Laptop on - fine.
Macbook on - fine.
PC on - fine.

PC & laptop on - fine
PC & macbook on - fine
Macbook & laptop on - not so good.
The laptop loses connection, browsing is sluggish at best and laptop says everything is connected, when it isn't.. detecting the network after disabling the wireless is patchy at best, sometimes it'll see it, other times not.
We've done two hard resets on the router and several soft resets - all to no avail.
(Once to flush a firmware upgrade off that hadn't gone well)

I'm wondering (checked firewall on laptop - all is good.. ) if we should attempt the firmware upgrade again or whether there's something about the macbook taking all the connection 'because it's wired'..

I'm not totally techie on this, so.. bear with me if you can assist... :D

TIA

Problem seems to have solved itself overnight.. left everything switched off (cost cutting drive here) overnight and voila.. yesterday, everything was sweet again... :D

mods: can I request a lock on this topic please?
