    I am with the worst isp ever aol. I have bought a new laptop all singing all dancing and trying to go wireless with it . I have a thomson 580 speedtouch router. the problem is that i keep getting disconnected. I no longer use aol i use mozilla firefox and get my emails through outlook express but still get cut of after about 30 mins.

    any ideas before i through this router in the river tay.

    ps if my speeds are 288 up /1024 down is that 1mb connection

    I not clear on what your problem is, is it the Internet connection that goes dead or the wireless connection?

    Could it be a power problem? Maybe as the battery strength on your laptop gets low the performance of the wireless card gets reduced accordingly. Just an idea, other than that I have no idea what could be causing your problem.
