Thanks for the reply... No I had the laptop right next to the router, good signal and changed channels... all the same.. I really don't know loads aboy Wireless networks, standards, equipment... But I wonder why Virgin supply a modem that's 10mg/20mg compatible and a wireless router that is not?? Seems kinda stupid... Assuming that is the problem. I'm still kinda lost, I know for a fact that the connection is 10meg, following speed tests for the last two weeks, so its not the connection... still could b e my USB 1.1 slowing adapter down??

I'll keep tryin, there must be a way round the prob...
