    A odd little internet problme
    I have a wireless my essentals g adapter and it has some "issues". When you first plug it up, it has some troble connecting with a netgear whitebox {which I use} and so I run down stairs to restart the router. Not that big of a problme. Then when I start up a online game, the internet cts out every now and then on the adapter. Any help would be cool.:cool:

    Yeah, I do that when I use the drive because it doesn't get the ip address when I first plug it up into my computer

    Restarting the device is not reseting it. There should be a button on the back, use a pen to push it, hold for 20 sec. Then plug into it and reconfigure it

    I do that, and if it doesn't work, then I unplug it. Typically that settles it, but the problem still persists

    Have you reset it, then gone into it and reconfigured it right away

    Reset it by the button, then plus in, and type 192.168.1.1 in the url of the web browser. Depending on what router you have type in the username and pass. And config for wap security.

    Before you plug the cat 5/6 back into the router from the modem, unplug it for 2 minutes about
