767369 2009-04-22 09:17:00 This can be anything from a bad NIC driver to a modem getting too old and not coping.

If this the only laptop in your house experienceing this problem or are all of them like this?

If its just this one then you can try updating the drivers, or it could that this old laptop is using the old wireless b standard, which is quite slow.

If it happens to all PCs then contact you ISP
