Linksys Router Disconnection Very Often

GrandG
I have a very good linksys router and a linksys thing i plug into my usb and it picks up the signal. When I play WoW (a multiplayer game on the pc) like 30 seconds after i log in it disconnects me. when im wired to my router, it dose not disconnect me at all, everything works fine. any suggestions?

You must have something faulty going on with your router, or your USB receiver has a problem. Did you install the updated drivers for the USB device? I would check that first.

Otherwise, does the USB receiver pick up other wireless signals and hold a connection? If it does, I suppose you must have a faulty router, though this is very strange as I personally have purchased numerous Linksys routers for customers and have had nothing but unparalleled success.

Also, you could always check the wireless configuration on the router (probably try factory defaults first to make sure). Hope this helps!

crashcore has the right suggestions. Are you able to keep a solid connection when browsing the web for example vs. playing WOW? You also did not specify how far from the router your usb device is. There are a lot of factors that can influence wireless reception. Concrete walls, microwaves, cordless phones, wireless tv setups, etc (they all use 2.4 ghz bandwith) Im assuming your using 802.11b/g. Let us know some more details and we can try and pinpoint the problem. Like crash said above, it is very rare that a linksys router would be faulty. I have had nothing but good experiences with them.

The quickest solutions I can think of that will help give you a stable connection while playing online games is update your firmware, enable WPA security and make sure all devices connected to the router have a different IP address. Other then that it would be best to get a hold of tech support at linksys and see what they can do to give yo ua more stable connection.

All Linksys routers do this

I had the same problem with my prior linksys router so I bought a new one (the more expensive small business - enterprise version) and have the same exact problem. It seems Linksys firmware is junk. You can tinker and try to get a reliable connection. Others will tell you to upgrade the firmware or set up a static IP -none of this has worked for me...

Good luck.

    the use of an ethernet-to-USB converter (it has no ethernet port). We decided to move this desktop
