I've been running two wired and two wireless machines from a netgear MR 814 router without problem. Shortly after my kid kind of moved the router around (but didn't seem to harm anything) I suddenly had a connection that was a crawl. On the one wireless machine with W98 I have the Orinoco manager loaded and the link test showed that the connection seemed to drop in and out, in an on/off fashion. when it was on it was perfectly adequate (13-15 db)but the result was an unusable signal. the w98 machine uses an external usb antenna and the other wireless (thinkpad/xp) uses an orinoco card --it all ran great until recently. the router seems fine; antenna tight, etc.
the two wired connections are perfect. i move a 10mb file in one second and shared net connection screams.
what the heck happened?? any help greatly appreciated! --paul
