WIRELESS HELP PLEASE?
Ok, This is my second forum post. I am having issues with no resolve. I have a M1210 with vista home premium, Broadcom 440x 10/100, Intel wireless 3945abg and a linksys router. I bought my expensive computer a month ago. For the price, I expected my computer to shake my hand and know my name when i opened the box (haha). I use my computer mainly for internet related functions.
When I use my wireless, If I download any files larger then a music file it knocks out my router completely and I have to hard reset to get my connection back. It also does this if I use google maps, or visit certain web sites.
When I am hard wired, I usually download at approx. 30-50 kbps. Is this normal? I go faster on my boyfriend's cheap old computer in the corner.
I really fell in live with this comp when i saw it, and spent twice as much as planned just to get the best of the best in it. Now, I just get more and more angry whenever I turn it on. I called Dell and Linksys both, with no help! Dell told me that I just can't download large files wirelessly? That doesn't sound right to me. I have had many people tell me that this is a Vista issue and give me directions to "fix" this issue, but these as far have not helped. Is my computer only good to play solitare on?. Please, anyone, help?
