When I connect wirelessly at home the connection isn't maintained for more than a few minutes, it used to work fine and I have another similar laptop that is able to maintain the connection so I don't think there is a problem with the network or router

The router is a Linksys WRT54GS (connected to my Cable modem). I have one wired connection to my desktop (which is not on at present) and a wireless connection to my laptop (with an internal Atheros card), which is sitting less than a foot from the Linksys box!

The signal strength is 'Excellent' (as you would expect) but the connection sometimes works for long periods and at other times keeps dropping, sometimes reconnecting immediately and other times needing 'Repair' to reconnect.

It obtains its IP address dynamically. Would I be better off assigning a fixed IP?

Is there anything I can do to understand WHY it is losing connection?

i've recently moved into an apartment. when my satilite was being hooked up, the installer had his laptop. and told me there were three non encrypted wireless users in the area. What exactly do i need to buy for my desktop to run the internet off those wireless signals? and how much am i looking at spending?

Got a new beautiful computer to go with my other computer but we can't get them to share the internet connection longer than about 10 minutes without it crapping out. Right now I've given up and hooked up the old computer again directly.

Both are Windows XP Home Edition, I use Cox Cable (cable modem LAN w/Motorola modem), I have a Linksys Wireless Broadband router, two brand new ethernet cables, just installed Norton Antivirus 2006 on both, otherwise the one computer is brand new with nothing much else on it.

I'd like to share my printer, plus see the files on each computer, plus both use the internet connection. We've tried calling Cox, calling the router tech support, using the Network Troubleshooter with Windows and I'm about to lose my mind. Anyone have any idea what the problem might be and a good step by step website suitable for my needs to help us out?

I'm moving to a house with CAT5 drops in every room. I saw in the garage a box with several cables, each labeled with a different room's name. How can I best take advantage of this? Do I need to get a special router to plug in each room's cable? Do I need a special adaptor to connect to the CAT5 in each room? Can I go ahead and order a normal DSL or cable ISP, or do I need special service. Sorry for being such a newb.

I have one cable line, a splitter, two modems, made by different manufacturers, a laptop and a desktop pc. Can I connect to the internet with my laptop, (my desktop is already connected throught the cable line), without having to buy a router or any of the other hardware? Is it possible to connect as if it were the only pc on the line? I don't want to set up a network if I don't have to.

I opeaned the folder and the first three chapters are there but the rest of it is all slashes marks (////////////////)
Thousands of them.
I am trying to stay claim.
It had over 25,000 words just all GONE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
This is not the first time this has happened to me but it also happened to my notes on the book.
I have written many other books but this one some how does not want to be written.
Nothing has happened to those books progress just this one.
Above the slash marks it says...
FHYPERLINK "../gal/4.html"
The book in prpgress is called "What's wrong with the Bible."
I don't know what I should do?
Should I rewrite it all?
I don't want it to happen agian.
I am starting to think there is an intervention or something taking place.
No one can get into the files.
I alone know the password, which is complety random.
Thank you for any answer.

The directions that came with the router are saying that I need to hard wire the router and modem to a computer...then I will be able to get my access all over. But I only have a laptop...everytime I needed to get on the net I just hooked up where the modem is. I bought this router so I could be all over the house. Any suggestions?
