wireless network (spit)

When my wife retired she wanted a laptop with nothing attached to it, so I setup a wireless network. Since I had it I removed my cable network and bought a wireless transmitter for my computer as well.

It proved to be a monumental screwup. The wireless ran at best half speed, at worst 1/3 speed. I put up with the slower performance okay but it kept dropping me. Not to mention the nano second losses of connection the locked up the browser. I use my computer too much to tolerate that. So I reinstalled my regular cable network today. I had to do a few new things to it, but it's back working like a network should. I used the wireless gateway for my wife's computer.

I don't know about anyone else's wireless net but mine sucked eggs.

Belkin wireless i don't know the model. I am still using it wireless for the wife and cable for me. My speed is back where it should be and my brower works all the time again no freezing.

dsl but i never had problems till the wireless router... The whole thing is the wireless i have is a bottleneck speed wise. The wireless will not support more than 54k which is really fast dialup speed. There maybe faster ones but I didn't have it. Going with a cable into the router puts it back at 128k and is more secure, not from theft but from misreads.

you are right it is megs... and thats what it does, just locks down and sometimes so tight I have to reboot the thing. I am back on cable an its much faster and much more reliable. I am just going to leave it for the wife. It is a g by the way.
