Wireless Lag!

[ToMaTo]

Hey Guys,

I made the "awful" decision to go to Wireless when I moved into my new home, now every minute I get packet loss/lag and quite literally can't move for 10 seconds, then it runs normal again, it keeps doing this..

Any ideas on what to try to fix it?

You might wanna check if there are other wireless networks in your area, if yes, try changing wireless channel.

You also could try to change the beacon-interval.

why bring food into this..

you have to check if you have something called "Wireless zero configuration" enabled. If you have that, deactivate it.

This is what u should do:
1. Go to control panel
2. Administrative tools
3. And the Services i think. I got norwegian windows, so im not sure.
4. Then a list should appear, and there you shold find it.
5. Stop the service and deactivate it.

widows zero config. try to connect the AP (acsess point) every minute, and then the net gets unstable(in most cases). I recommend that you use ure software to your network interface/drivers, Not windows networks interface.
And one more thing:
Update to latest drivers ( Network card and ure Router) that can solve many problems.

I hope this gets you longer on the problem solving or solve the problem.

Heh..

New problem! Bastard thing, the disabling/stoping of the service fixed the problem, now every time I stop the damn service it can't connect. I installed the software that came with my Wireless card as said but it doesnt use that to connect.

If it has no cable, you can't play with it.
