network overload?
We have a wireless network in our house, and under normal circumstances, it works fine. There are 2 desktops connected through Ethernet, and most of the time, 1 laptop using the wireless. However, whenever my sisters come home from school, the connection suddenly goes haywire. They represent 2 more laptops. At all times, at least one, usually more, connections are lost, and cannot be restored unless the cable modem is reset. It seems obvious enough- the router cannot handle that many connections. I am correct in believing the only way to remedy this is to buy a more powerful router, right?
