Keep losing signal

CONTINUAL DISCONNECTION OF WIRELESS CONNECTION

There are a few things that can cause you to lose wireless connection with your wireless router.
1. Weak signal strength, check the signal strength on your wireless card. If it is weak move the wireless router away from brick or concrete walls, mirrors, fish tanks and if possible locate the wireless router higher up.
2. Have you secured your wireless router from people near your from unauthorized access? i.e. change the default password, setup encryption use WPA2 or WPA, change the default SSID, and turn off SSID broadcast, and for added protection, enable MAC address filtering which allows only the MAC address/es of your wireless card/s to connect to your wireless router.
3. You could be getting interference from electrical sources such as air conditioners, arc welders, washing machines etc. If so, the power supply to the wireless routers and computers etc should be connected to a surge protection power board, better still connect your computer equipment to an UPS (Uninterrupted Power Supply).
4. Check the channels of the wireless routers and access points in your area and change the broadcast channel on your wireless router to an unused channel or one that is currently used but has the weakest signal strength. This will minimize interference with your wireless router from other wireless routers and access points in your area.

My wireless connection speed is 0.3 to 0.5 Mb/second. When I plug in an cat 5-e cable between the router and the computer the speed is about 6 Mb/sec. This is with the computer and router and computer in...

There could be numerous reasons for this. I will list them in order of most likely to least likely.

1. There is something causing interference. (a device broadcasting on the same 2.4 GHz as your router, such as a cordless phone, other router, maybe even a mirowave oven)

2. Your router's transmitter/receiver is going bad

3. Your wireless card's transmitter/receiver is going bad.

4. Your Router/Wireless card's antenna is disconnected or ground faulted

5. You are the victim of a hacker's Man-in-the-middle attack. (I will not explain what this is... However, just make sure you have set your wireless security)

Weak signal

Go to your basic setup and change IP. Your default is 192.168.1.1 you can change it to a higher number
(ie:192.168.1.4) Also make sure and set up security.
If you leave it open others can use your connection and slow you down.
