Hi
I have a Belkinhttp://catalog.belkin.com/IWCatProdu...duct_Id=136493 wireless g router connected to 2 pc's mine still has the land connection while the orther pc is wireless but my connection runs through the wireless,

The problem is i keep getting disconnects after its being on for awhile and i get very bad lag with it all the time when playing games,
When we got it first it was fine but now its constantly giving trouble, I have ntl broadband coming in through the house its 1.5mbps

thanks

I would start with basic tests. Look at event viewer to start. Look at the task manager network graph. Might install ethereal to see exactly what is on the lan. Be sure you have swept the systems of malware. Use all firewalling and limit ports to only used for your uses. Look at all web based router logs if they exist. Consider using a live cd from backtrack to see what else might compete for your airwaves. There are plenty of other airwaves that will not show up unless you use proper test equipment that might degrade your service too. Consider a switch to a wired solution.

I read it wrong and answer it wrong too. So get off my case you goober.

what do u mean your connection runs through the wireless? did you mean your internet comes through the wireless AND you still have a wired connection to the router?

do you have any encryption enabled? also how far apart is the wireless router and the computers? stuff like mirrors, some fridges and tvs, microwaves, cordless phones interfere with wireless causing drop outs / crappy signal.
