Right, I have virgin media BB and a Linksys BEFW11s4 router.

I have my main PC on all the time and generally have no problems when it is on it's own connected by ethernet.

When my mrs connects her works laptop by ethernet or wireless or I connect my laptop by wireless or any others, the connection drops every 10 mins and I have to unplug the router to re-set it, then the connection lasts 10 mins or so.

upon disconnecting the router from another laptop, the connection drops a couple of times and then is ok until a new device is connected.

I have been through the settings and can't see a problem there.


Whats a reliable wireless router that I can use for general internet connection sharing and for a local network (my main PC has all my music on and I use it as a music server for the laptop in the garage and laptop has no CD drive so I use the main PC's CD drive)

TIA
