I have a decent internet connection and it works very well when I use the ethernet cable, here is the speedtest: Ethernet Download: 1,5mbps Upload: 260kbps Ping: 5ms Wifi Download: 260kbps Upload: 149kbps Ping: 239ms The WIFI box stands 4 feet from me, I'm the only one using this network, there is a WEP password on my WIFI. Is there any settings of my WIFI device that I could have fucked up ? | ||

If you 'have' to use wifi consider changing your firmware to dd-wrt if your router has rubbish firmware/disconnect issues. I had a netgear and now dlink router with wifi and they both always used to disconnect wifi devices connected to them after random times and a reset would be the only cure to reconnect the devices. Since changing to the dd-wrt firmware its been rock solid, never had to reset my router ever again. | ||

2. The information you are sending across WEP isnt important enough to get someone to bypass the 128 bit encryption. 3. WEP imposes no bandwidth overhead. 4. Most routers do not let you increase signal strength manually. (it can be done if the router has a extended range mode) Are you sure your using the maximum wireless mode for your router (G or N?) and is there no electric interference at all? is your router near a power supply or outlet? Also, perhaps run a tracert to google and ping both ways. Perhaps some one else was on your wifi connection. | ||

Also electromagnetic disturbances screw up almost everything, so make sure there is no such source anywhere near your equipment. | ||

WEP has nothing to do with this (it's not going to cause stuff like you're describing), though WPA is better in nearly every way. Also, have you tested for packet loss? (If there's significant packet loss, it's very likely to be interference.) | ||
