1) If I purchase either the Netgear WNR834B or the Netgear 854T, do I have to purchase another WIRELESS CARD to take advantage of the potential 270Mbps-300Mbps Internet speed or does it not matter? If so, what card would go best?
2) Does connecting both the Netgear card and the Broadcom modem at the same time have a detrimental effect?
3) What is the ''best'' wireless router for my equipment? Is there a wireless 1GB router available?

Hi, we need to first figure out whether it the modem or the router which is dropping the connection. Please connect one of your computer directly to the modem, by pass the router and access the internet. If the connection drops then its the modem which is dropping the connection and you need to contact your isp to check it. If the internet works fine directly with the modem then its your router which is dropping the connection. To fix the router we can upgrade it firmware. To upgrade the firmware please visit the link below; http://homesupport.cisco.com/en-us/wireless/linksys/E1000 Note; If you are not comfortable upgrade the firmware then don’t do it. If not done properly then it can damage your router. Rashish
I would start my first rebooting the main modem. Once that is up, reboot the wireless router. Once that is uo, reboot the laptop. Try to connect.
If that does not work, eliminate the wireless router and connect the laptop directly to the modem via Ethernet cable and reboot the computer again and see if it works. If it does, then it is something with the wireless router. If it doesn't, i would contact the provider so they can verify that they can see your modem on their network. If they cannot, they will advise you further (hardware/cabling issue). This is all assuming that nothing has been changed on any settings of the laptop, router or modem.
first check with the ISP if any DNS server settings or proxy settins are required(but i think you can alternatively connect your laptops these may have ben already set on the laptops but just in case)
now if your ISP accepts you to have more than one connection from the same link then you can connect the connect the cable from the modem to the INTERNET/WAN areas and you can connect the ethernet cables in the ports marked 1,2,3,4
here check that if you are only etting the link on the computer connected to port1 and no connection on the others then make a small adjustment disconnect the cable from WAN/Internet port and connect it to the Port1 and the computers to 2,3,4
now that you are saying that u r not interested in the wifi so it is advisable that you go to the home page of the router and from there to the wireless page and disable the wireless broadcast of the router for safety purposes
this can be changed any number of times back and forth
So you have a DSL modem connected to a router connected to a wireless router connected to both your computers? Sounds like you need to just get a wireless modem and throw all the routers away.
Hello, I've had the electric cut off and immediately back on and I lost my connection from Wireless router to modem. I could not connect in the same way. I could access the router settings with wireless laptop and PC but not to internet on either. I bypassed the router and connected the PC computer to modem then to internet verifying with a browser. I then reconnected the computer cable back to router and router to modem. It stayed connected. But I'm not sure if you have a PC connected to the router also. Sometimes just unplugging some cables and replugging will solve problems. Hope this helps.
