Linksys WRT54G Disconnect and speed problem
This is a discussion about Linksys WRT54G Disconnect and speed problem in the Windows Networking category; Using a Linksys WRT54G V5. 0 router, and connecting to it through a Linksys WMP54G Wireless-G PCI adapter. Recently, the internet connection has slowed to a crawl. I also experience short periods of no internet connectivity every 10 or so minutes and then it instantly re-connects.
Using a Linksys WRT54G V5.0 router, and connecting to it through a Linksys WMP54G Wireless-G PCI adapter. Recently, the internet connection has slowed to a crawl. I also experience short periods of no internet connectivity every 10 or so minutes and then it instantly re-connects.
It's all a bit mad, when i first got it up and running it worked like a dream (2 days ago), pulling full bandwidth from my blueyonder cable connection.
I've updated the firmware to 1.00.6 released Jan 2006, which has done nothing. I really wanted to try a thrid-party version(DD-WRT's) as it's supposed to increase signal strength etc. But they don't have one for v5.0 of this router.
Messed about with security settings on and off etc. But also nothing.
Can't think of anything else to try, feel like wacking a cat5 cable in it and sacking off the wireless to be honest. any ideas plse ? would be greatly appreciated....

5 postings about your problem is total BS. If it started 2 days ago then return the crap product and get your money back and buy anything other then Linksys.
