- unplugged router and modem
- restarted comp ( I was told this "refreshes" the connection?)
- moved computer and network hardware to different locations
- tweaked antenna's for better signal


Card: linksys model wmp54gs
modem: linksys befcmu10
Router: " " w/ SRX400
Comcast

what do you mean by "tweak" lol

wifi is funny, its literally radio waves that can have any and all interference.

is your network a,b,g,or n?

wep encryption or wpa, or none?

how far away is your computer from the router?

how many computers use it?
