I have a wireless modem hookep with my dads computer it's run like crap. Seriously im quit angry about it, this guy was selling me it wont drop anytime. It has got nothing to do with windows xp running it.
Example , i tried to hook my dad up with some mp3's i mostly have to restart my computer or refresh the network a couple times before it works. Heh as funny as it may sound ive tried to play ut2003 on my dads computer a couple times but its impossible to play a game online with a wirless lan. Seriously it skipped out every damn 10 seconds. So i figured lets try it with a normal wire hookup ( his pc got a standard build in port for a 56 k modem and a modular connection to plug in the connection for a cable modem ) it worked nice and smooth with both options.
We paid a little fortune to buy those things you know, and my dad doesnt know much about computers anyways so he was ok with it, i warned him tho. Wireless modem connections are evil!
Oh btw i dont know a lot about computers but maybe someone could help me with it. Is it a stupid thing to play games online through a wireless network the modem never seems to continue sending information, just packages of information its seems. No microwave just a phone connection in the other room but i dont think it has got to do anything with it it..im clueless.
