    my connection will drop sporadically. it says "excellent" in the tray at the bottom but will just drop. usually get back on by unplugging the modem, but this is every day. would appreciate any help? thanks in advance guys.

    Please post type of connection, ISP and OS people might have some ideas for you.

    Moving this to networking. My preleminary thought is this is wireless, and outside interferences are wreaking havoc.

    Your router contains 11 channels, all which vary your wireless frequency ever so slightly. Its worth trying all of them for the ideal channel.

    might u have a cordless phone or wireless phone plugged in near your router. i had to move a cordless due to interference with phone calls over the VOIP. Are you running any VOIP? Also try changing your router configuration to g band only and check for firmware upgrade on the mfg's website
    good luck
