My Wireless Router Disconnects Frequently

    I have a Netgear WGT624v2 a 108 Mbps wireless router.

    The router is set up in the attic for a good brodcasting range. Where I do most of my surfing from, I am about 30-50 ft from the router. I have a laptop and connect via a Netgear card.

    I have no problems receiving email but when i browse a few certain sites I tend to get disconnected from them. I browse Mammoth Mountain website (the cams and other stuff too), Surfline (webcams, weather, etc) and I play online poker.

    While I'm watching a cam for example, I loose the wireless connectivity. When I'm playing poker, I get disconnected and have to start over.

    Has anyone else here run into this sort of interference and what you did to solve it, it would be much helpful.

    It's driving me crazy!

    Thanks,

    Christian

    I am having exactly the same problem - one corner of my living room seems to be a dead spot. No luck figuring it out here - I've tried moving the router, but not much more I know to do.:confused:

    If your signal is good and strong and you just randomly get disconnected it might just be the router. I've had routers work fine one minute then the next it drops every ones IP and you have to get a new one. So I just replace the router and all is fine. I know of a business that gets hit by power surges or spikes a lot and they have to replace equipment a lot
