I have a question, we use a wireless router so everyone in the house can connect to the internet. Someone who uses the wireless internet, uses Lime Ware to download files. The thing is whenever he uses this, the internet seems to shut down. Does anyone know the reason for this and if there is anyway around it? I know that with programs that download files, there is can be a problem with using wireless internet compared to a normal cable modem. It has something to do with the IP address I think, but I don't know really know the technical stuff about it.
