New Router Issues

djnerve · 10-12-2006, 14:01

I was running the Murcury BR100 router for a good while now and due to me getting a new laptop i needed to go wireless, so i baught the Linskys WRT54GS from pc world with the speedbooster thing.

installed it all exactly to the book, i start using it and i get disconnected on adverage 1/3 times an hour really annoying! after a few seconds it re connects. also i seem to have lost some speed with this router

It's really bugging me anybody with any ideas?

**Edit im on Telewest 10mb in WF2 area**

How do you mean disconnect? Does it drop the connection to the router, or does it seem to drop the connection to the internet (while you're still connected to the router)

I don't exactly know i just get a dropped connection for around 1 -2 mins. i don't no if i can still access the router

Regarding what Zeph said, when it disconnects, does the desktop still work?

How far are you away from the router? What does the signal strength show? Is it an Intel Pro Wireless adaptor? Do you run a TV sender or wireless phone or anything?

im connected via earthnet but the router is wirelessly enabled. when the internet goes everything works just have to wait for it connecting again
