Hey, its me, Andicioz
 
Home, we have 5 PC's. (4 Homepc's, 1 WorkLaptop)
There are 3 Homepc's on the internet with a networkingcable, and 1 homepc and 1 worklaptop on wireless.
We have an Unsecured Network ( an U.S Robotics Router )
But we can secure it, we dont know how.
 
Now this is the problem:
We are surfing on the internet with wireless pc, and on a moment we dont have internet any more on the wireless computers.
Not at the laptop, not at the other wireless pc.
But at the pc's with the networkingcords, you can still go on internet but very slowly. We go to the router ip ( to configure) but it freezes when it loads. We didn't had when we were connected. We reset the router, put in username//password, reconnect have internet on all pcs again, but the next day, it is gone!
And we always must reset the router.
 
I think this is the router name: US Robotics Wireless Broadband Router
 
Please help,

You router could be failing or your signal from your ISP could be dropping to a level that the modem loses its connection with the ISP. On the off chance that your browsers have BHO's operating in the background and therefore killing your bandwidth, download BHO Demon and run it on all of your machines: http://www.majorgeeks.com/download.php?det=3550 . Then, you want to scan them with whatever anit-virus agents you have and with ad-aware.

sounds like a faulty router. try to find an updated firmware to see if that fixes the problem. if it doesnt then take it back or contact USR to see what they say about it.

I Have runned all BHODemon on all pc's, looks good. No bad BHO's.
One question, a time ago my norton inetsecurity detected 'a new network'. Could it be that someone else in my street has a wireless network and my pc's think they must get internet from there?

If you don't use encription to seal off your network, you certainly may be losing bandwidth through a third party.

I think i solved it, just to put it on here for others that have the same problem.
 
I changed the Network channel, to another number than the default (11).
