Problem with wireless
Every so often I have to unplug my power to wireless router and replug it back so I can connect to the web.I have wpa security on and ssid on too. This problem just started to happen. I had this security and ssid for about a year now. And the last couple of days it started to do this I have netgear wgt624. And my computer is a inspiron 8600. Thank you for any help.

try resetting the router (usually you hold down the reset button for 15 seconds or so). this will clear all your settings but will hopefully get rid of any problems. setup your router again but use a different SSID this time. reset up your clients.
make sure your client adapters have the latest drivers and firmware.
make sure the router is running the latest firmware (and do the hard reset procedure immediately before and after a firmware update).
if you continue to have problems, you may need a new router.

buy a different phone ;-)
also try setting the wireless channel on the router to an extreme (1 or 11). try both settings. do the same to the phone if possible (to the opposite extreme of course).
