ok well, i have a "buffalo router" and it says on the front box Enhanced multiple Security management (AES,TKIP,WEP), and no i dont have another laptop connected to the network, i do have about 3 ipod touches hooked up the the network, and all seem to be running alright, although the connection was alot quicker on the ipods (loading videos etc.) before i started having these problems with my connection on this computer, im starting to think it is a problem with the router :/
ok im going to sum it up easily what im trying to say, pretty much what ever i connect to the wireless router either has incredible low speed or it drops out, my xbox used to connect to my router wirelessly, then it stopped, then a week later im having this problem with my computer
The other factor could be inteferences causing dropouts. But yeh if you can't figure it out i'd say time for new hardware.
thanks mate ill replace my router and wireless adapter, but would recoment a onboard pci adapter rather than a usb adapter?
I fancy onboard/built-in definately. Where possible i always avoid using third party software too, just to eliminate any possibilities of conflicts. If you have money invest in a laptop for wireless connection and have your Pc as wired. G' luck with it :)
