Network keeps on crashing

A variety of issues, and it's driving me crazy. Most of them occur when the computer that is hard wired in is in use. Internet is always dropping, watching anything on Netflix or using the XBOX 360 or PS3 is useless. Downloading large files also crashes the network. (even the computer that's hard wired in loses connection) Firmware is up to date and I've tried setting the priority so the wired computer is lowest, but that doesn't seem to do much. I bought this router less than a year ago and it's always had mild issues with connection, now it's ridiculous.

    I did a clean wipe of my existing network and re-did the whole drivers thing and it's working a little better, but still crashes a lot.

Try turning QOS off on your router. Generally, with home routers, QOS causes issues. What are your download and upload speeds? If you don't know you can go to speedtest.net and it will tell you. If turning off QOS doesn't resolve your issue and you have decent Upload/Download Speeds (3mbps/20mbps or higher) then your best bet would be to replace your wireless router.

SOURCE: The Wireless Signal keeps dropping out.

make sure that there are no cordless or wireless devices near the router such as a cordless phone since that will interfere with the wireless signal and a cause for frequent disconnection.

otherwise, the device should be replaced already.

SOURCE: WGR614 Netgear Router consistantly dropping all connections

Probably an issue with the DCHP broadcast flag in Vista. See the following article - I would recommend doing this first, if you have not already done so:

The dealer or a repair shop just needs to keep it & get
more involved

Dealers don't keep anything that they can't write a repair
order & collect money on,they have enough business
without your issues.

The vehicle has to have a scan tool on it & driven while recording
data & then play it back after the symptom returns

There are many things that can be checked also

You can't send $1,500.00 for 3 straight days of diagnostic
work,so there you are,as are millions of others, waiting to get
rear ended again. That is todays technology

No driver

Hi there,
Remove it and install it into another computer as a slave to see what'll happen.
If it shows up in 'my computer' as a drive letter(like E: drive) but you can't access it,you can recover data on it with data recovery program to avoid losing them.
I have succeed with Tenorshare data recovery. It can recover data after deeply scanning your hard drive to look for lost data due to drives crash and 'not recognized' issue.You can get it here: http://www.any-data-recovery.com/index.htm
After you recover your data,you can format it to check out whether it can be fixed.
If the hard drive can't be detected,you can try this way.Put it in a zip-lock bag and put it in the freezer overnight. Then while it's still cold plug it into the computer and you may be able to view it in 'my computer'. And run the recovery program to recover your data on it.
If it fails, you will have to go to a recovery office but let's hope not because it will cost you a lot of money and whether they can recover data is not guaranteed.
This article will help.

After using the setup DVD the windows boot screen appears with the green bar travelling across the bar then it just freezes up. Tried to crash out and cannot, tried to change every option on the reload and...

If the old hard drive failed where the computer locked up I would suspect problems with the computer. It is possible that the new hard drive has issues. As far as compatibility, there are very few problems with hard drives, as this is all but unheard of. What keeps this from happening is the plugs are different on different hard drive interfaces, so bottom line is it wont let you plug in the wrong type of drive, as the plug wont fit. I would suggest you go into the setup program, and choose the default settings for the hardware. This can solve lots of problems. Now if the computer was crashing with the old hard drive you could have computer problems. One of the most common is dust and lint inside blocking the airflow to the computers processor. It is a good idea to have your laptop professionally cleaned internally if it is locking up, for no apparent cause, I would say that 80% of the time this is the only problem when a laptop is locking up. You wouldn't believe the build up these get inside. Good luck with it.
