    I have wireless router and followed all the directions but my internet connection on my laptop is slow more like dial-up slow. Do anyone know what the problem may be?

    Thanks!

    I am currently using a Netgear wireless router. I am about to take it back and get a Linksys.

    go to 192.168.1.1

    it will ask for login/password. leave login blank, and for password type "admin" this will get you in.

    then go to your wirless settings and change what channel your router is on. Its usually set to 6. Try changing it to 2 or 9 and see if you get better results. You must click "save settings" for the change to go thru.

    Hope this helps.
