OverlordMondo Posted November 23, 2004 Share Posted November 23, 2004 I'm connected to the internet through a wireless router. But I can't seem to get a stable connection! I managed to keep one going over the weekend, I was able to talk to people on IRC...and then I had to reset my computer. Naturally, I've spent every second since then trying to regain a stable connection. Any simple fix for this? And fix at all? Is there something wrong? And my parents refuse to run cable ACROSS THE FLOCKIN' HALL so that I can have a stable connection. Everytime I get disconnected, I go and start using the microwave, or cordless phone, just to annoy them by kicking them off. I constantly tell them of security risks (which is probobly the problem) but they REFUSE to switch to logical, sensible, cable. Any ideas on that one?

Even my connection isn't stable, and I really don't know what to do about it. Maybe you should try updating the BIOS, change drivers or something....?

IxI SoNiK IxI Posted November 24, 2004 Share Posted November 24, 2004 make sure your pc with the connected wireless card is free from things that might interfere with its connection, like if is inside a desk, like those pc desk from ikea or wuteva with an area to put your monitor and pc.. i've moved my other computer with the wireless outside of the desk and nows getting an excellent signal, 54mbps, linksys 2.4ghz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ken_cinder Posted November 24, 2004 Share Posted November 24, 2004 Wireless technology is still crap, consumer grade stuff is garbage and I don't see why people insist on buying it.Take a baseball bat to it, then your parents have no choice.
