    Hi All,

    I'm having issues with my wireless connect, between my desktop and my laptop.
    Things i'm using on my wireless connection are, Ipad, hp touchpad, iPhone, laptop, desktop, printer.
    *Netgear wireless router
    Seems I can only use my desktop or my laptop on the internet never both at once, If I decide I wanna go from my laptop to my desktop I'll have to reboot the desktop so it will connect to the internet, now everything always has a connect to the network just cant use internet on both at once.

    Ive tried to google for people having this issue, but cant seem to find what seems to be the same issue, Thanks for any help!

    have you tried resetting the router to factory defaults to see what happens?

    Yes I have done that, actually just finished getting everything back running,decided to test and once again the desktop and laptop seem to be fighting for the same connection or something. wondering if I need to set a IP for each device or something

    well I found a thread which a user was having the same problem (seems to be)as myself.

    http://forum1.netgear.com/showthread.php?t=72727

    Well I tried to call Netgear, My product isnt under warranty any longer, So I'll have to purchase extended warranty or a new router to continue support..
