Sporadically working wireless

    I have a wireless network capable router. Internet works fine through an ethernet cable. However when i unplug that and rely on the wireless network. It fails 90% of the time. Its connected to the wlan just fine. However internet connection seems extremely flaky. If i click 10 links, 1 MIGHT work. 10 google searches, one might come back ok. I cant find any problem, and the sometimes valid connection has me really stumped

    Any ideas?

    Thanks tech support :)

    Login to the router thru ethernet and change channel and see it that improves it

    Will definitely do that Later or tomorrow. I never thought of another network affecting it. Thanks

    Sometimes cordless phones and especially video senders can interfere. You might try changing the B or G modes too
