I have a Linksys router (prob.4 or 5 years old) attached to our PC. I have a laptop that has wireless connection.
I have a Dell Inspiron E1505 with really lousy
IntelProSet Software 11.1.0.0. It won’t stay connected so I rely on the cable connection that comes through the router most of the time.
Lately we have had to keep pulling the plugs on the cable modem and the router then turning the PC off and on again to be connected to the internet. I am getting tired of this. The cable repair man says our Suddenlink connection is ok and that the problem may be with the router. Our daughter has music download software installed and it freezes a lot. Is the problem with that or should I look into buying a new router? Should I get a new wireless card for my laptop that is compatible with the router?
I hope this makes sense. I would appreciate advise as to what to do and suggestions for buying a good router and wireless card for home use.
Thanks!
