| 445708 | 2006-04-11 05:23:00 | I am running windows XP home edtion and recently went to broadband. For ease of use i installed a wiresless connection using Netgear's WGT624 Router and WG311T adapter. Since installing the adapter my PC has been "hanging" there appears to be no pattern to when this happens and i have to manually restart as Alt, Ctrl, Del doesn't work. I did phone Netgears helpline and have tried installing on verious ports, removed my modem and yet it's still happening. i have now connected my PC straight to broadband and it's not "hanging" anymore so the problem must be the adapter. Has anyone had this problem or know how i can fix it as i would rather have it running wirelessly rather than have the mess of wires everywhere. or have i just wasted my money on usless products ??? Thanks |

| 445710 | 2006-04-11 05:31:00 | According to this (www.pcmag.com) the router is a hunk of junk. I take it, you've got more than 1 computer for the wireless side?? And this site (compnetworking.about.com) shows the pros and cons. |
